Update ShareSynch Mac/PC software download to new version

For update checking

  1. Convert .exe to .msi for Windows version (Michael used http://www.exemsi.com/), and make a copy of .dmg that has .zip extensionn
    • Up until version 4.0.106 ShareSynch would expect a .msi, but since 4.0.107 it expects an .exe.
    • Reason for renaming .dmg to .zip is just because Dave Johns had troubled serving .dmg from his server.
  2. Upload all 3 files to software.sharehim.org/ss4/ following the naming convention there.
  3. Change software.sharehim.org/ss4/curver.txt to the new version number.
  4. Make same changes on Dave John's server at http://www.translatesermons.com/ss4/curver.txt
    • No reason to upload the .msi here though.

For initial downloads

  1. Upload the new .exe and .dmg versions to tn1.sharehim.org/var/www/sharesynch-software
  2. Make sure the name follows the convention.
  3. Modify tn1.sharehim.org/var/www/.htaccess to reflect the new files in the "latest sharesynch" pointers.
