Hello.
Thank you for the precision, sorry if I did not understand something, be sure I try !
I just tried to turn auto-updates ON on a station, (that is connecting to Internet through the proxy PC with dial-on-demand).
Then I had to wait for new updates being available. When connecting to Internet from the station (for e-mails), I could hear Avast on the proxy PC announcing it had updated. Then I kept online for 1 hour to let Avast on the station at least 40 mn to find out a connection was done.
It did not. So I had to make it update manually.
This may be explained as the proxy does not route ICMP packets, so does not allow to ping on Internet from the LAN. ???
So Avast on the station was unable to detect the connection.
Then if I configure it as “permanently connected”, what I understood is that it will try to download every (4h ?). But in this case this will always succeed since the proxy dials on demand.
… What leads to my apparently wrong calculation on the sum of connected time.
Where am I wrong precisely please ? :-\
Must I really get the network edition ? I will accept to pay a correct price, but only when I am sure that all my LAN works correctly with all these tricky applications I must stack.
Thank you,
PS: Any news from the mirrorring solution ? I found a freeware named FolderClone…
