The Groovix system provides all networked workstations with unified profiles and software updates as part of the Groovix update process. This process is done through a system called Groovix NetCustomization or GNC. It queries updates, fixes and system changes from the Groovix Server and runs them automatically. If the system has not applied these updates, they are downloaded and installed automatically.

Normally, this process is performed on boot up or customized to your specific update schedule; however, this process can be run manually at any time by typing /etc/init.d/groovix-netcustomization start in an xterm window. Every time Groovix NetCustomization is run, the results of that process are dumped into a log file that can be accessed for reference or troubleshooting located at /var/log/groovixnetcustomization.log.
