I'm trying to implement KB article.

This suggest adding the following a key to the registry.

1. Locate and then click the following key in the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

2. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
3. Type NoSimpleNetIDList, and then press ENTER.
4. On the Edit menu, click Modify.
5. Type 1, and then click OK

Any suggestion how to implement this with GPO? I have to do this via
Group Policy because of the number of clients affected.

Hi,

Use the following administrative template:
-----------------------------------------------
CLASS USER

CATEGORY !!RefreshUserInterface

POLICY !!RefreshUserInterfaceBehavior
KEYNAME "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer"
EXPLAIN !!RefreshUserInterface_Explain
VALUENAME "NoSimpleNetIDList"
VALUEON NUMERIC 1
VALUEOFF NUMERIC 0
END POLICY

END CATEGORY


[strings]
RefreshUserInterface="Refresh User Interface Behavior"
RefreshUserInterface_Explain="In Windows Explorer, when you create a new
file, paste a file, or delete a file, the user interface may not update
automatically. As a result, the list of files that appears in the current
folder may not be up to date. This behavior occurs most frequently when the
target folder is on a DFS share or is a special folder that must be
redirected. For example, the My Documents folder is redirected to
\\myserver\myshare. This behavior may also occur when the redirected folder
is targeted to a Netware server. Always, you can successfully refresh the
Explorer window when you press F5."
