We have a Windows 2003 Domain.
We migrated from a NT4 Domain.
We use Kix 4.22

Ive change a(n old NT4 group) securitygroup name and KiX doesnt accept it as a valid INGROUP("newname").
When i use INGROUP("oldname") it does work.

Gpresult shows the correct group name. Also all AD resolves of the SID are correct.
It looks like Kix looks at an old name.

Is this a known bug and is there a sollution?

Nope still no succes.

Im patching it by making other (new) groups and putting the renamed in the new ones. That seems to work but not very nice.

Strang thing is that when i put a new person in the renamed group it works.
Only persons that were in the group before the rename.
Reneming their membership doesnt work.

Indeed seems like a cache thing...
Is there another way to clear the kix cache?

yep that did it.
I also understood with the HKCU that the flush should be done on the client PC.
That also worked. How long till the cache clears automatically?
