the fields on this page specify information to be embedded inside WiseUpdate Client.
This information tells the client when, how, and where to check the Web location for new
versions.
The first time you configure WiseUpdate, you enable that version to check for later
versions over the Internet. To enable the Internet updating capability, you must use
WiseUpdate for each successive version of your application.
1. Select Installation Expert > WiseUpdate page.
2. Mark Include WiseUpdate Client.
3. Complete the page:
Host Address
Enter the Web server address where you plan to store updated installation files.
(Example: www.company.com) You can also enter the server's IP address.
Note
The Web location you select should be accessible through both the FTP and the
HTTP protocols—you typically use FTP to transfer files to it, and end users use
HTTP (WiseUpdate Client) to read and download files from it.

Host Username
If necessary, enter the user name that's required to connect to the host
address. Typically, Web servers don't require user names and passwords. This
is used for basic HTTP authentication.
Host Password
If necessary, enter the password that's required to connect to the host address.
Enter this only if the Host Username is entered above.
Host Directory
Enter the directory on the Web server where you plan to store updated
installation files, including the WiseUpdate update file. To put the files in the
root directory of the host, leave this blank.
If you are working in an update, the directory must be the same as in the
original version of the installation.
Update Filename
Enter a name for the WiseUpdate update file and use the extension .INI.
(Example: WiseUpdate.ini) This file is created during compile. In subsequent
versions of this installation, the file name must be the same as in the original
version of the installation.
