    Tried unlinking and relinking and got a warning message that the old version of Dropbox platform is being retired on Sept 28 2017 (stet) and the developer has yet to acknowledge the change, so this app may not continue to work in the future. I have also tried the latest version of the SQLBak agent (2.12.7). Still no luck, so I think I will refer back to SQLBak.

No changes were made to inbound/outbound rules on Windows firewall. I added the URL to our perimeter SonicWall appliance's allowed domain list.
