Sus Server Config

[quinla01]

Hi guys. I've just setup a sus server on a 2003 server. i've approved a bunch of updates for windows server 2000.

I've then go to a server 2000 sp4 machine and edited the local policy of the machine to download the autmatic updates from the sus server. I also changed the policy to download at a daily scheduled time.

Now, when i go to start-->all programms --> windows update, it takes me to the windows website rather than look at the sus server. However the server did install about 30 updates in the space of about 10 minutes so i think it may have used the server. Is there any way to tell? Why is the windows update link still using the site?

Any help would be great.

thanks

Andy

you can look at the logs for the SUS server to determine if it pushed the patches to the servers or not, look at your settings for the SUS server and see where the logging was setup too.

the sus server only stores the updates not hosts the pages.. windows update will come from ms but because you changed the policy.. your machine now knows where to grab the content from
