Perhaps you can use:

 

netdom reset domainmember /domain:mydomain

 

This "resets the security channel", which if it means the computer

re-authenticates to the domain (and gets a new token), should do the trick.

Re: Refresh computer group membership.

 

I've tested this now.

I assume the computer password has been reset, but group membership has not

been updated.

Do you have any other suggestions?

 

If I remember correctly, when a user logs in he gets the token that contains

all group memberships. While logged in it gets refreshed at some point?(some

random time) Is that correct?
