Beta 6 is now available exclusively through the auto-updater for testing purposes. If you do not have Beta 5 installed on your system, you will need to download and install that first. See the previous news post for a download link. Once you have Beta 5 installed, just log into the server and the autoupdater will prompt you for the new version.
