No, it just means that there is no index.html file and the web user is
not authorized to view the directory. The base URL is used to download
files.

If you try http://download.nai.com/products/datfiles/4.x/nai/update.ini,
you will notice that files can be downloaded, provided that you specify
the /correct/ filename. There is/should be no problem with the
autoupdate script, as it downloads the ini file(s) to determine version
information and afterwards, if necessary, downloads the specific files
mentioned in the ini files.

Regards,
Mike.
