For years, I have been able to update Directory Opus on about 10 machines using just the Download button on the Directory Opus News and Updates page, despite all of my machines being behind a couple of firewalls. This worked by virtue of my having installed exceptions in the firewall file filtering to allow files of all types from GPSoftware to pass through with only a security scan instead of rejecting all types of executable and similar files. The URLs that I had identified and included in the exceptions were <gpsoft1.com>, <gpsoft2.com>, and <www.gpsoft.com.au>.
In the last year or so, that all stopped working. I identified a new URL that is used for software downloads from the GPSoft web site <cdn.gpsoft.com.au>, but a firewall exception for it does not work for updates. Currently, I have to open the firewall management function, turn off all file filtering from web sites, download the update, and then restore operation of the firewall file filtering. I have searched the forums for information on the distribution source for updates and found nothing; perhaps I'm not using the correct search terms. Could someone please point me to or provide the information needed to allow the update process to work through a firewall?
Thank you.
