What's the best way to refresh/purge mcx caches on a Leopard client? Can you still hold down the shift key and ket a prompt to refresh? When I try it I just get the old 10.4 style workgroup picker app (which I dont want, and Im glad its not mandatory now!)


What command line tools do suggest to use (via ARD or SSH)


Can I purge/refresh mcx settings from WGM?

dscl is probably the easiest thing as you could just whack the caches and reboot. It should be like Tiger though and refresh on every network transition (sleep, reboot, shutdown, etc...).


dscl actually has a mcx plugin now so things are easier to deal with as far as doing scripted policy reads and writes. Also check out mcxquery and you can stop being so envious of the Windows admins and their resultant set of policy tool. :)
