 well... I had done all that and the SUS is running on client as expected.
The only problem is that when it comes to the time to install,
It prompt the user whether to install the downloaded patches now or later.
I would like to have it installed automatically at the background without
any user interaction.
I push it through the AD group policy.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Hart.

The clients must have the "automated update" software installed.  This is
included with Win2000 SP3, but can be manually installed on earlier
revisions.   In addition, it require a registry update to point the updater
service at the SUS server instead of the windowsupdate site.

I believe that the client must have Service Pack 3 or later for Windows 2000
but that should be it.

Additional question regarding SUS. Is there anything special (i.e..
Software) that needs to be loaded onto the client or does the GPO just 
push the updates automatically when scheduled?

I have looked into this and as far as i know there is no way to make 
this work. I think they may be working on it for version 2 but i think 
that got pushed back *again* to late summer now.

You can look in the content directory i think and it will have all the 
patches that it has downloaded so if you know a machine is missing a 
patch you can just go there and get it but otherwise it is scheduled 
only.

Hi all,

We are setting up a SUS server here at our site.  We have been able to 
get several machines to get their updates from it as opposed to 
directly from the microsoft site.

My question is this, is there a way to set up SUS so that you can use 
a browser to connect to http://susserver.mydomain.com and be able to 
have it scan the machine and then download the needed updates, ala 
windowsupdate.microsoft.com?

My googling has not turned up anything todate. maybe someone has 
developed something like this already and is willing to share?


TIA

Raoul
