Default scipt to always download the latest connector?

As part of our user facing documentation, we tell customers to download the Outlook connector from our admin portal, and link directly to it. You don't need authentication to link directly to the zimbra connector, so it works fine.
Trouble is, the connector address changes every time we update, and there doesn't appear to be a way to predict the build number. Turning on directory browsing in jetty doesn't appear to be an option, so I am not sure how to write a script that effectively proxies the download to always get the latest version.
Enabling symlinks also doesn't work, as changing that option in jetty will also get overwritten (I think) each upgrade.


Any ideas on how to get a consistent download URL for the zimbra connector? Anyone scripted this to make it easy for users, techs and documentation?
thanks in advance!

EDIT: Sorry about the spelling error in the thread title.
