Thanks for all responses. and i am the GUY!!! (not a GIRL!!!) ;) i will try SUS but unfortunately i don't have a enough band... anyways i should patch for all (dummy!!!) M$ oses in my organizations. that's the life ~
Microsoft Software Update Server (SUS) the MS execs must be turning in their sleep as the SUS is FREE... what does it do?, well it downloads and syncs all the available updates MS has (WARNING it downloads all updates by default, turn off any languages your don't use!) ANOTHER WARNING: all updates can take a long time, depending on your band), this allows you to deploy patches without you going to the MS boxes you have. Read the doco before you start (don't a cowboy or gal (s970501 doesn't really state gender) when installing any patch or software)... once you have installed, changed policies, configured what you wish to download and downloaded patches. Authorise the patches you wish to release into the local net. On Fri, 2003-10-17 at 23:23, s970501 () ku edu np wrote:Hi, i have a question. Can I update a new patch for the whole windows computers of my organization in my room? usually, i run windows-update from all the computers. or download patch file once and run it on every computer. it's really time consuming job, you know... anybody can give me a neat advice??? :) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- FREE Whitepaper: Better Management for Network Security Looking for a better way to manage your IP security?
