NAME
     mcxrefresh -- Managed Client (MCX) preference refresh tool

SYNOPSIS
     mcxrefresh [-u uid] [-n username] [-a]

DESCRIPTION
     mcxrefresh is a utility to force the client to re-read the managed preferences on the server for a user.	This tool must be run with ele-
     vated privileges.	Note that this may return a zero status if the user could not be found but there were computer settings available.  You
     must use the -a parameter to enter a password if you are requesting a refresh of an Active Directory server.

     -u  Specify the numeric user id of the user to be refreshed.   A user id of zero can be used to refresh the client at the login window.

     -n  Specify the short name of the user to be refreshed.

     -a  Ask for authentication and pass it to ManagedClient.
