Windows Server Update Services

[compass]

Friends how can we create a Windows "Server Update Services" server

is it posible in windows 2000 Pro ?

Not possible with Win2k Pro..

The supported Operating Systems are

• Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 (SP3) and later

• Windows XP and later

• Windows Server 2003

This information is from:

That is such a bad question and response session from the url provided at M$.

If you look at the answers you can run the server side on 2k SP4, notice no distinction between server of pro, and same for the client side you only need 2ksp3, though this link WSUS System Requirements does give a better answer.

So i would guess 2k Pro would work but as you really need to hook it to a SQL Database for best use, i'd say Server=2k Server SP4 and client is 2kSP3.

We are here to help and not criticize people for helping. Find another forum for that

With that being said.. I did copy and past the wrong part however the information in the URL is still there and correct and does contain the information requested.

Sorry about my mistake

sorry chilifrei64, wasn't critising you, only the answers that MS provided as i thought they were ambigous, apologies if you took offence.
