However: the server update was fine, at the end, it said it had to reboot, which I so did. After some time, I noticed that the Console icon on the client I was using, was still showing red; I remoted into the server and it was running just fine, so I selected the red Console icon on the client. A window appeared, saying that this version of Connector is not compatable and needs to be updated and 'click OK' to upgrade. This then again showed a licence agreement window, where I agreed and pressed OK, the pop-up then proceeded to uninstall the 'old' version of Connector software, but DIDN'T install any new version! The only way, was to navigate to the copy in the server shared folders and run it from there. I understand that there aren't too many people yet with a working setup of the RTM, but if this isn't just a one-off, there are going to be some very confused people. I'm off now to see if the same thing happens on the other clients. Colin I’ve updated my server running the RTM tonight with this ‘update’.

Work when this update is down loaded after installation ?
