Subject: Re: Automatic Updates through a Proxy Server
I believe this will probably only work with IE. But it's nice to know that
it DOES work! We've overhauling the website right now, and I'll add this to
the "tips" section for AB.
Thanks, Rob

Subject: Re: Running AB on a Small network
I *THINK* you can make it work. Here's how....
1. Map the remote CD drive as a network drive on computer A.
2. Make sure this is a PERMANENT connection with a FIXED drive letter.
3. Install AB directly from the CD via the mapped drive letter. Yes, this
will install an older version of AB onto your computer, but it will also
cause AB to look for the CD on the mapped drive letter thereafter. Do this
by running the file "abldr22b.exe" (or whatever it is on the CD).
4. Launch AB to see if it works from the remote CD. I think it should.
5. Install V2.2c of AB over the current installation. This should leave the
CD drive location untouched.
6. Launch AB to verify that it still works from the remote CD. If it worked
in step 4, it should definitely work now.
Hope this helps,
Rob
