June 9, 200818 yr I'm trying to write an entirely automated process of installing Windows updates in Server 2003. I've got code to run every executable in a folder, and WUD seems to be exactly the utility I need to download all the updates to the folder.My question is, is it possible to do a remote download of the file without accessing the download page? Basically, I have a script right now that tries to, but it ends up grabbing some HTML instead.
June 12, 200818 yr At the moment, all the ULZ files are hotlink protected, which is why you're getting HTML instead of a ULZ file.I'm sure that jcarle could implement this in a future release of WUD.
