I want to update my NetSUS from 4.1 to 4.2.1. I was searching on the GitHub page for instructions on how to do an update and could not find any besides the first time install. Do I need to stop any services or uninstall anything before running the update install? I don't want to lose the account passwords and settings I have already configured. Thanks!

NetSUS 4.2.1 Question
+11Best answer by duncan_mccracke
Super easy - simply download and install as if it was a first-time installation.
Existing configuration is preserved, services are stopped during the installation automatically.
You may need to restart AFP/SMB services once the install is complete.
On Ubuntu:
wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/c3aeii38qh6c05y/NetSUSLPInstaller_4.2.1.run
chmod +x NetSUSLPInstaller_4.2.1.run
sudo ./NetSUSLPInstaller_4.2.1.run
On RHEL/CentOS:
curl -L -O https://www.dropbox.com/s/c3aeii38qh6c05y/NetSUSLPInstaller_4.2.1.run
chmod +x NetSUSLPInstaller_4.2.1.run
sudo ./NetSUSLPInstaller_4.2.1.run
Please note there's been a few reported issues with upgrades, but these pertain to the underpinning OS being not a 'standard' configuration. The installer will fail gracefully without doing anything in these scenarios, and you can refer to:
/var/appliance/logs/applianceinstaller.log
For details on what may have gone awry.

+6I have 4.2.1 installed and I am unable to get updates to be seen by my machines.
my suscatalog http://172.18.51.187/content/catalogs/index_CMC.sucatalog doesn't have the updates listed as enabled in the branch.
When I search the XML file returned by that address I can not see 10.13.1 update ID 091-14782.
Not sure what I need to do to get High Sierra and Sierra to see the updates.
Been banging my head on my keyboard since Monday and any help would be awesome.
