Default Problems with Redirect Server

I'm trying to setup a Redirect Server on a website. I've referenced the UnrealAdmin Wiki section about doing this. However, I'm having trouble getting it to work in the game.

the syntax URL is http://username.artofwarcentral.com/path/to/redirects/

So I have a separate server for redirects other than my game server.

Anyway, the game is still downloading the uncompressed files from the game server. It does not want to download my compressed files from the website server. I attempted to change the directory and file permissions to World Read+Execute(or 755) but it is still downloading the uncompressed file on the game server!

- Server is not under a proxy
- Files from website server can be downloaded via web browser
- All files on the server are compressed
- The last forward slash is in front(or back?) of the last directory in the path

Are you sure you have RTFM of that redirection service? I'm spotting teo "replacemes" there: http://username.artofwarcentral.com/path/to/redirects/

RTFM?

Anyway, like wiki says, it must be a website and not an FTP. The address I'm trying to use is a website. And the syntax URL I used is just an example of what my website address looks like. So if I defined it more, it would be:

http://clientele.artofwarcentral.com/redirects

Very important: Test the URL for validity by entering it into a web browser.

The configured URL will be extended by the package file name with extension as follows:

<redirect URL><packagefile name with extension>.uz2

Make sure you add a slash ("/") at the end, otherwise the clients will try to load things like "http://clientele.artofwarcentral.com/redirectsDM-CustomMap.ut2.uz2" (sic!)
