INTRODUCTION
This article describes how policy changes in a Groove domain are distributed to clients.



MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft Office Groove Manager Server 2007 and earlier versions of Groove Management Server do not push changes out to Groove clients. Instead, Groove Manager Server passes any changes in policy to each client the next time that client contacts Groove Manager Server. If a Groove account is already active on a client when a policy change is made, up to 5 hours may elapse before that client fetches the policy change.

When you are on a Groove client, you can obtain these changes promptly by initiating contact with Groove Manager Server.

To initiate contact with the server in Groove 2007, log out of Groove and then log back in. Groove will fetch any policy updates when you log out or log in.

To initiate contact with the server in Groove Virtual Office 3.x or in Groove Workspace, updatethe license information. When Groove connects to Groove Manager Server to obtain license information, Groove downloads any changes to the domain policies at the same time.

To update license information, follow these steps:
 * 1) On the Help menu, click About Groove.
 * 2) Click Licenses, and then click Update.
