For a few months now, I’m the de-facto Domino Admin for our company. Most things I’ve been able to figure out, but I can’t get a handle on how the ‘Mobile Directory’ works. For 1 thing, how does it get updated when new groups or people are added to the Domino address book? I had a request from one of our managers today to add a new email group to the directory, which I did in the Domino address book, but he won’t get it (a remote ‘user’) unless it shows up in the Mobile Directory. When I open the Mobile Directory, I don’t seem to be able to edit it directly, even though I have ‘Manager’ access in the ACL…
Thanks in advance for any explanation/tips you can offer!

by Mobile Directory I’m going to assume you are referring to the Directory Catalog, a compressed version of your primary and secondary domino directotries? If that’s the case there should be a server in your environment dedicated to running the Directory Catalog task. The schedule can be found in the server doc on the Server Tasks > Directory Cataloger tab. This task runs against the directories defined in the Configuration doc in the Directory Catalog database.

Yeah, that’s the one. Thanks!
