If I remotely remove someone's admin access to a machine while they're logged in...

If I am not mistaken, the local permissions on the machine will not take affect until they log out and back in since they only authenticate one time, but the domain permissions will take affect immediatly since you authenticate per resource or request.

I think you're confusing permissions and group membership. If you remove someone from the local administrators group, they will have administrative access until they log off. If you remove someone from the domain admins group, you'll have the same result: the user will still be an admin until they log off and log back on to rebuild their token. That's group membership.

Now look at file permissions. If you remove a group from access to a share while a user in that group is logged on, they will be denied access to the share the next time they access it. No need to log off.
