I need to flush it because I send out mapped drives by group membership. I changed a group name in W2K active directory now I can't map the drive since I changed the name. It is like the person isn't a member of the group.
------------------------------------------------
--this is from the kixtart 4.10 manual---this is why I need to flush the cache.
The group-membership cache is stored in the registry hive of the current user and contains security-identifier-to-groupname mappings. Changes to a user's group-membership are automatically handled by KiXtart during the next logon.
Note If an existing group is renamed, that change will not be visible to KiXtart until the next time the token-cache is refreshed.
The cache is automatically refreshed every 30 days.

This works quite well.. Finally a good solution that you can add and remove from your script easily with no headache.
To refresh the Group Token cache in the registry just cut and past this code in your script. Put it in the beginning of your script before Ingroup statements.

![[Eek!]](images/icons/shocked.gif){kind=icon}
or some other way?
