Hi Frank,
CRLs are cached on the server and clients and as long as that CRL is valid
(not expired) there is no supported way to force the client/server to check
for new (updated) CRL.
If you need to revoke users access permission immediately, you have to
either disable user's account or remove the account from the group that
allows him/her access to the website.
