Tip 1: If you’re updating from BrightAuthor 2.0, you do not need to redo the setup files on your units that are
currently using Simple File Networking for updates. You can publish changes using BrightAuthor 2.2, and the
units will update normally.
Tip 2: With BrightAuthor 2.2, files published for Simple File Networking updates now reside in the Pool folder.
These files are named using their hash key values, so they have no extensions. Since some web server do not
