I see the references to Startup/Shutdown and Logon/Logoff scripts, but is that the only time a script can kick off? Or does it periodically refresh if new or changed? We are trying to push out the DST patch to our 2k servers and had hoped that a startup script GPO could do this. It works fine if the machine re-booted but I was hoping that if the machine is always left running that the background refresh interval would kick in and the machine would see a new GPO it had not executed, and bingo, the script would run. So far this has not happened. It does not seem to run the script without the re-boot. Are scripts not part of the refresh processing?
