Our company has developed a front-end for all our applications and whenever a user chooses to run one it first checks the dates on the files belonging to that app and downloads the newer ones if needed. We have some users on dialup connections and this is a very time consuming process for them.

A couple of weeks ago I ran across a company that had a component that helped with the depolyment of applications, and now I can't remember their website. What this component did was instead of downloading the whole .dll or assembly it compared the two files and only downloaded the bytes that had changed. Sounded very similar to rsync in *nix. Does anybody know where I can find a component like this?

Your help is greatyl appreciated,
Justin
 
Seek and ye shall find.

I found it. ActivePatch is what I stumbled across before. Does anyone have any experience with this, or have any other similar products they like/use?

Thanks,
Justin
