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

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.
