First I add the GPO snapin to the MCC. Then I change any setting in the LGPO. When does this change go into effect? Immediately, upon reboot or is there an 'apply changes' button somewhere hidden?

To update the modified group policy manually, start an command prompt and then type gpupdate /force.

See this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/283312

Or If you need to apply the change immediately, you can use one of the following commands to trigger the process:

* To refresh the group policy for the local computer, enter: secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy
* To refresh the group policy for the user currently logged in, enter: secedit /refreshpolicy user_policy
