Is the AppUpdater restricted to localhost use? I have an application to
works fine retrieving updates from a virtual directory off of the default
web site, but when I try to create a deployment web site, I get the
following:

System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy
Authentication Required.
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.CheckFinalStatus()
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.EndGetResponse(IAsyncResult asyncResult)
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse()
at Microsoft.Samples.AppUpdater.WebFileLoader.UpdateFile(String url,
String filePath)
at Microsoft.Samples.AppUpdater.ServerManifest.Load(String url)
at Microsoft.Samples.AppUpdater.AppUpdater.CheckForUpdates()

I can see the update manifest xml file in the deployment site with IE.
There is no way to specify credentials to AppUpdater, is there?

I have SBS 2003 with ISA 2000 in a very basic configuration. The deployment
web site is just passing the headers back to the default web site. IE
works, AppUpdater does not.

Thanks,

David

Is there a better place to ask questions about Microsoft Application Blocks
such as AppUpdater?

AppUpdater appears to send all anonymous requests, but even though I have
web site anonymous access turned on (by default when the web site is
created), AppUpdater still fails. Maybe I need to change ISA settings?

Thanks,

David

Maybe I'll try just one more time. AppUpdater works fine off of a virtual
directory on my default web site (SBS 2003/ISA 2000). But, this is the
application error I get when running AppUpdater on a "deployement" web site
rather than a virtual directory off the default web site:

System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy
Authentication Required...

ISA 2000 reports one line:

192.168.xx.xx anonymous - 2004-xx-xx 13:28:44 xxxxxx - xxx.xxx.xxx- 80 -
199 2721 http GET
http://xxx.xxx.xxx/SampleWindowsApplication/UpdateVersion.xml - 407 (Proxy
Authentication Required)

I can view the contents of the manifest xml file in the deployment site with
IE (using the above URL), which ISA shows as attempting anonymous access
which fails then trys again with my credentials, and it works. The
deployment web site is setup for anonymous access. Web site config file
mapping, URLScan, and WebDAV are not the issue. What is? Something I am
missing in ISA setup? How does this work for you? Help.

Thank you,

David
