Maybe you can let the kiosk hosts connect to the server and perform GET
and PUT commands. The server then only has to put the needed updates in
a specific directory where the kiosk hosts can download them from. This
way the hosts themselves don't have to be reachable on the internet
which would be better from a security point of view.
Thanks for the explanation Rob.
I can't control what happens on the serverside. That's a third
party company. I figured regardless of me being able to forward port 21
to one of these machines without a problem, I can't do it for all
three. So I think I'm screwed either way. Grrr...
