I have setup my .ini as I have seen on several of these redirect help topics but I still cannot get files from the redirect server I just keep getting the server failed to send file message
[IpDrv.TcpNetDriver]
AllowDownloads=False
ConnectionTimeout=15.0
InitialConnectTimeout=150.0
AckTimeout=1.0
KeepAliveTime=0.2
MaxClientRate=20000
MaxDownloadSize=1
SimLatency=0
RelevantTimeout=5.0
SpawnPrioritySeconds=1.0
ServerTravelPause=4.0
NetServerMaxTickRate=20
LanServerMaxTickRate=35
DownloadManagers=IpDrv.HTTPDownload
DownloadManagers=Engine.ChannelDownload
[IpDrv.HTTPDownLoad]
RedirectToURL=http://62.30.0.51/UT/
ProxyServerHost=
ProxyServerPort=3128
UseCompression=True
Any help would be much appreciated, I'm trying to get this up before 5.30pm UK time today.

Try changing AllowDownloads=True and remove the MaxDownloadSize line entirely. I also noticed that none of the files on your redirect site are compressed. Here a link for help on compression.

But I've read in other posts that you do not need to set AllowDownloads to TRUE as this is only for the local server, i.e. if I set this to TRUE and the redirect server fails then the files will be downloaded from the local server, however as I can't get the files from the redirect server now, then surely it will simply download the files from the local server all the time.????????
Thanks for the compression bit I was wondering about that, but if they aren't compressed would that stop UT from retreiving them from the redirect server.????

I have AllowDownloads set to True so players can still enter the server in case the redirect ever goes down. Yes, it will stop UT from retreiving the files from the redirect if they are not compressed and you have the UseCompression variable set to True. UT is looking for .uz files and cannot find them on your redirect. That would be the reason it is not working for you.
