You can do this with the following command; gpedit.msc /gpcomputer: remotecomputer Obviously you need admin rights on remotecomputer to perform this :) Nick Besant, ioko nick.besant () ioko com - http://www.ioko.com
-----Original Message----- From: hansn () comcast net [mailto:hansn () comcast net] Sent: 25 February 2004 18:56 To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: Security through Microsoft SUS and GPEDIT.MSC I have a question pertaining to the gpedit.msc command when used to access the Windows autoupdate settings. I use this command to edit all my client machine's access to our local sus server and everything works well, although I do have to admit that physically going to each machine and running this command is quite tedious and time consuming. What I'm looking for is a command that will allow me to access the remote client from MY administrative workstation and run gpedit without disturbing the user on the client machine (which means I would like to keep away from any remote desktop usage). It seems to me a week or so ago I read a response that had a command to run gpedit on remote clients from a local machine and I can't for the life of me remember what that command was. Would any of you happen to remember what that command was? Thanks in advance Hans
