Features

• Distribute files from the "My Files" tab to your endpoints.

Usage Notes

• Files are distributed from the server to the chosen path(s) on each chosen endpoint.
• The endpoints check their distributed files every 20 minutes. If the file is missing or not the correct size, the file is requested form the server.
• The server checks the files that are used in the "My Files" section every 20 minutes. If the files have changed, the clients are pushed new files.
• File checks are currently based on size, lacking a good file hashing method in the MeshAgent. This also speeds the checking process, but is less than optimal in ensuring the file is an exact copy.
