Updating and Upgrading VirusScan Software To use a custom account, clear the Use Logged In Account checkbox, then click UNC login information to enter a user name and password for an account that has access rights to the target server. • FTP from a remote network computer. Click this button to tell the AutoUpdate utility to look for new files on an FTP site you designate. To use this option, the target server must have an FTP service enabled. By default, the utility will download new files from the Network Associates FTP site, which accepts anonymous FTP logins. You can click Default to specify this site at any time. The AutoUpdate utility uses its own FTP implementation to connect to the server, but the timeout period for the connection attempt will depend on your existing network protocol settings. To use a different FTP site, enter the URL for the site you want to use in the text box labeled Enter an FTP Computer Name and Directory. You must either connect to a site set for anonymous FTP login, or you must designate the user name and password for an account on the site. To have the utility use an anonymous login, select the Use anonymous FTP login checkbox. To specify an account, clear the Use anonymous FTP login checkbox, then click FTP login information to enter a user name and password for an account that has access rights to the target server. If your network uses a proxy server, select the Use proxy server checkbox, then enter the server name and the logical port it uses in the text boxes provided. You can enter the name in UNC notation or as a domain name, whichever is appropriate for your environment. NOTE: The AutoUpdate utility will not allow proxy connections that require challenge-response proxy authentication. Configuring advanced update options To complete your AutoUpdate task, you need to enter only a target server, a connection method, and any necessary login information. Once you enable the task and set a schedule for it, the AutoUpdate utility will download the correct files from the target server for you, extract them from their .ZIP archives, then install them into the VirusScan program directory.
