4.3 Updating iFolder

Update the iFolder client only with patches or upgrades distributed by your iFolder administrator. The iFolder client checks for updates on the server whenever you log in, and prompts you to install a new update if it exists.

Typical distribution methods on each platform are as follows:

  • Linux: Your administrator can deliver updates for the iFolder client for Linux with a customer-hosted channel in an update manager.

  • Windows: The iFolder client for Windows automatically checks for updates on the server whenever you log in, and prompts you to install a new update if it exists.

  • Macintosh: The iFolder client for Macintosh automatically checks for updates on the server whenever you log in, and prompts you to download and install a new update if it exists.
