Managing Users & Groups

5

Aurorean Client requests any remaining core and TollSaver POP files
that have changed since Aurorean Client was installed or last
synchronized.

If the files are out-of-date, the APS begins downloading

individual core and TollSaver POP files over the management

channel. When the update is complete, the process continues

with the next step.

If the files on the Aurorean Client computer are still current, the

process continues with the next step.

6

The APS relinquishes the management channel and a message
appears on the Aurorean Client Prescriber pullout informing the
remote user that synchronization is complete.

NOTE

Prescriber files and Aurorean Client executables downloaded during

software synchronization are not immediately available to Aurorean

Client users. Users must disconnect the tunnel, reboot the PC and restart

the Aurorean Client application to put the update files into effect. Files

downloaded during data synchronization are available after closing and

reopening Aurorean Client .

The Aurorean user can disconnect the tunnel while client synchronization is
in progress without causing an error. When the user connects the next time,
the APS automatically resumes the transfer of files at the point it was
interrupted.

As an alternative to client synchronization, you can also manually create a
“patch package” that contains the group’s core files. If an Aurorean user
cannot tunnel into the corporate network and you believe the problem is
related to outdated group policies or an incorrect ANG destination IP
address, you can build and distribute this patch package to that user. Also, if
your remote users employ IPSec tunnel protocol and you have regenerated
the El Gamal private key on the ANG, you can distribute the patch package to
install the new key on their computers. The patch package is a self-extracting
archive that automatically overwrites the core files on the Aurorean Client
computer. Refer to “Building Core Data Files” on page 147 for instructions on
creating a patch package.

For more information on controlling client synchronization, including
building new core files and uploading Prescriber remedies, refer to
“Controlling Client Synchronization” on page 145.
