Software delivery (from BES server, not internet)

(imported topic written by everestt23)

Hi Guys,

I vaguely remember seeing something about this somewhere, but can’t remember enough! Basically, I have the software I want available to me locally, so I can place it on the BES server and download it to the clients from there. So, how do I refer to the file location in a Fixlet? Instead of say, http://windows.com/myfile.exe is it http://127.0.0.1/myfile.exe, or what? Additionally, do I recall in order for Bigfix not to transfer the file to relays or from the file location into the bfmirror\downloads etc. don’t I have to copy the file (renamed with the SHA1 result) into the SHA1 folder?

I might be half remembering a lot of things here, so I hope someone can put me straight.

Thanks,

Tim.

Looks like I might be behind the times here. Is the Software Distribution Wizard all I need to use? Technology huh?
