I would recommend removing the old version before dragging in the new 
just to be sure that all components were properly replaced. Also, we 
are now using HTTPS to do the initial authentication so we are looking 
at the configured HTTPS proxy servers in the Network system preference. 
It's possible those settings are causing problems.
