Unless you're watching the rules as they download, you don't know where they are coming from. For example, I accidentally left the Bleeding rules as primary. As they were downloading, I saw a few with "bleeding" in them, so I knew I had downloaded the wrong ones. If the Update Policies dialog box would display the primary location before I start a download, I would be less likely to make this mistake. Optimally, I could select the various download locations from this dialog box when I go to update a policy. That way I could also download the rules from multiple sources in one operation.

As for selecting multiple locations, you can add multiple update locations to the policy. This will update multiple locations at once.  8/15/2007 2:44 PM    Ray 53 posts Re: Display or select download location for rules during a policy update   Jeff wrote You can view where the rules come from if you look at the group. all bleeding groups start with bleeding, all community groups start with community and all CRT rules don't have any prefix. Yes, however you don't see that when you're doing an update. I don't change the stuff in the left pane on a policy very often. A little more idiot-proofing would be nice. :-)  Jeff wrote As for selecting multiple locations, you can add multiple update locations to the policy. This will update multiple locations at once. Oh yeah, it did. That behavior changed from 2.0, didn't it? Seems to me I had to select which one was primary for it to download from. I kind of liked that because I didn't update the Bleeding rules very often but did update the regular ones frequently. With multiple donload locations in the policy, it now downloads from all even if I don't want it to, eh?
