Hans,

I think the command your looking for is gpedit.msc /gpcomputer:"PCNAME"
or you can use mmc.exe and make a enw console with specific computers.

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
