Re: How Long to Update?

Sam,

Are you able to access the Internet at work (via a browser?)  Update
manager uses HTTP protocol to access the update manager site so if the
firewalls allow HTTP to work then it should work for update manager.  If
you use a proxy server then you will need to enter these settings in the
Update Manager preference page.

   My home connection is still a 56kb modem.  Last night I told Update
   Manager to search for updates, expecting it to run a few minutes, then
   tell me what was available, kind of like Microsoft Update does.  After
30
   minites it had downloaded 10mb according to my connections stats and was
   still running.  The progress bar jumped to 80 something percent after
   about 15 minutes, but showed no inclination to move any further, so I
left
   it and went of to watch TV.

   I came back 2 hours later so I don't know when it finished, and it told
me
   that 5.1.0.1 was available.

   If I tell it to install 5.1.0.1 will there be additional downloads, or
   have the changes already been downloaded?  I hear rumbles here that
there
   are 4 or 5 additional upgrades already in the works.

   (I haven't tried the upgrade at work--still haven't gotten around our
   firewall.)
