Jim,
Are you using the manualupgrader tool from ISS? If not, I'd suggest downloading and using it. It will copy down all the XPUs, ini's and their associated policy files, and database updates and put them put them in the proper subdirectories. Our client has not approved direct connectivity between SiteProtector and the ISS web site, so we use the manualupgrader on another system, download the updates when they're available, burn them to CD, and then load them on the Application Server. Tedious, but it works for now.
I have not found a way to install the updates manually (but I've not looked into it very much). You may be able unzip the XPU and run the RSSPinstaller.exe with some flags but I've not tried it. You'll still need to download the appropriate ini file, and the policy file and put them in the proper subdirectory. This is why I use the manualupdgrader tool, it simplifies the whole process.

Hello Angelika!
Unfortunately, the online help is even less helpful than the manual. It says that you are allowed to select the file for the update, but I do not see anyway to select a file.
Regards,
Jim Mohr

Hi Jim,
I found it at the SiteProtector Console "Help" ----> Real Secure SiteProtector Help (F1), and than search in the Index-Tab for XPUs or X-Press Updates.
Hope that works.
regards
angelika
btw: in my last mail I talked you the XPU Date field in the "Detail-Window". It is just the creationdate of the XPU.

Hi All!
In my "Site Protector Strategy Guide" (version 2.0), under "Apply Updates" (pg. 166) it says "For instructions about how to apply updates, go to the Site Protector console select More Info -> Real Secure SiteProtector -> User Proecurers". I find no menu or anything labled "More Info". There is a Help menu, so I click on "Real Secure SiteProtector", but there is no "User Proceedures". There is something called "Console Users Reference Guide", but this does not contain the indicated section "Managing X-Press Updates". This problem also exists int eh Section "Downloading Updates Manually".
So, the question is, where in the documentation does it describe how to install the updates?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Jim Mohr
