Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] SUS Feedback...We also use SUS with great results. I'm looking forward to using SUS 2.0 with support for other apps, especially Office. Another new feature in SUS 2.0 is deadline installs. So you assign an update and the user has until a certain time to install it. If not done by that time it installs automatically.

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] SUS Feedback...I think SUS is great for what it does... in my environment I don't need
NT4 or Win9x support.I do need non-domain workstation and server support, so I developed a few scripts that set the appropriate registry entries to make that work.
I push the scripts and SUS pulls the patches.
I'll be happy when it's better integrated with Office, SQL, etc. etc.
etc. The feature set of SUS 2.0 should be nice.For environments that need to support the push model, Update Expert (St.
Bernard) and HFNetChk Pro (Shavlik) both work well. I have them deployed at several clients. And, of course, SMS for you large environment (and large IT staff) guys/gals.-----Original Message-----

Subject: [ActiveDir] SUS Feedback...Is anyone out there running Software Update Service? I want to gage what the general opinion of the service is. I personally think that there probably needs to be two approaches when it comes to a service like this.
One is a pull service based on GPO agent configuration, the other is a push service based on a need to force workstation updates on down-level clients, and those that seem to ride outside the SUS zone.
Any comments?
Thanks,
Todd Myrick
