All- I finally got around to finishing a GPO Touch Powershell cmdlet. I also added a 2nd cmdlet to the snap-in that gets GPO Version information---sorta like GPOTool.exe for Powershell. You can download the snap-in on the GPOGUY.COM site at http://www.gpoguy.com/FreeTools/FreeToolsLibrary/tabid/67/agentType/View/Pro pertyID/95/Default.aspx Follow the instructions on that page for installing it-I didn't go through the process of doing an installer this time. Let me know if you find any bugs or have feature requests. Thanks, Darren The snap-in comes with two cmdlets. Here's the get-help output for each: ************************************************************************** ******************************** get-help Invoke-SDMTouchGPO NAME Invoke-SDMTouchGPO SYNOPSIS Increments a GPO version to trigger clients to think something has changed SYNTAX Invoke-SDMTouchGPO [-Name] <String> [-DomainName <String>] [-DCName <String>] [-User] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<Common Parameters>] Invoke-SDMTouchGPO [-Name] <String> [-DomainName <String>] [-DCName <String>] [-Computer] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<Co mmonParameters>] Invoke-SDMTouchGPO [-Name] <String> [-DomainName <String>] [-DCName <String>] [-Both] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<Common Parameters>] DETAILED DESCRIPTION This cmdlet increments the version number of either the computer or user "side" (or both) of a GPO. This incrementi ng process will force clients to think something has changed in their GPOs and thus will cause them to reprocess th is GPO's settings (and possibly other's). ************************************************************************ ******************************** get-help Get-SDMGPOVersion NAME Get-SDMGPOVersion SYNOPSIS SYNTAX Get-SDMGPOVersion [[-Name] <String>] [-DomainName <String>] [-DCName <String>] [-DiffsOnly] [<CommonParameters>] ** Darren Mar-Elia CTO & Founder SDM Software, Inc. www.sdmsoftware.com <http://www.sdmsoftware.com/> Secure and configure your Windows desktops accurately every time without having to learn or install new technology.
