    I already know pwpack.exe and a bit of c + +

    But my real problem is this:

    I do not know how the client lists the folders on the server http .. and I do not know how the client to determine which files should be updated or not ..

    How should be the hierarchy of folders on the server?

    Should I put a text file or other which indicates the version of the current files to the client?

    Can you help me? I know lots of things to make a pwserver.

    But I have no more ideas how the server sends updates to the client ...
