Based on how often and when your OAB is generated usually once a day. Then your Outlook client downloads address book once every 24 hrs depending on when it did it last. Every client may be different. Because it depends on these two factors; it can take up to 24hrs.

That is great, but how can you set it to refresh automatically when you add a new group? Can you?

Hi Brian,

 

This setting can be changed as below:

 

  1. In the Exchange Management Console, go to Organizational Configuration.
  2. Click on Mailbox.
  3. On the Offline Address Book tab, click the Default Address Book.
  4. In the actions pane, click properties.
  5. On General tab, click Customize and select the timings as you need.
  6. Click Ok.

 

 

Thanks,

Right now when I create a new user or Distribution group in exnage, it will not show up in the GAL till the next day. How can I change this to be immediate?

I know this is a rookie question and I should know it...

Thanks,

Brian
