Download task will start at a randomized interval to avoid unintentional dDOSing of the update server/network infrastructure. The updater will even work when using NTFS for local storage, but only if the //toram// boot option is used. Regardless of NTFS or not, the updater requires three directories: ''/boot/X2Go-live1, /boot/X2Go-live2, /boot/X2Go-live-download''. **Attention: Whoever manages to spoof the server name can deploy rogue images to your ThinClients.**  Even though it is slower, using an HTTPS web server is the safer way of doing this. Be sure that your web server delivers a last-modified header for all files.    * ''updateurl=rsync|https|http|ftp://your-http-server-ip-or-dns-here/path-to-update-files'' - Will allow you to update an image in the background when using local storage instead of PXE.

 +It is possible to make X2Go-TCE-Live match your Corporate Design/Corporate Identity, using the "background" and "branding" parameters.
 +This is actually a feature of X2GoClient itself, so it will also work on //fat client// installations, and even on Windows and macOS.
 +
 +You can find a more detailed explanation in the [[wiki:advanced:branding-theming|corresponding X2Go Wiki page]]
