Mike, if you are running Outlook 2003, it takes while for the OAB to get
updated, and Outlook 2003 will download OAB updates only once per day by
default. What you can do is, force the OAB to regen, and then wait for a
while, and do an address book download from the client. See if that
works.

That was my impression too, that DLs should be visible in the GAL.  The
DL
is not marked for "Hide from Address Lists", and it is mail enabled and
mailbox enabled.  Anything else that I should check?

The DL was created earlier today (several hours ago).  Any AD or GC
propagation should have taken place long ago, as this is a very small AD
(120 users total, one computer).
