David, Just to clarify your network traffic on the internal LAN is too high and you think its WSUS? Doesn't WSUS use BITS for all transfers and only makes use of available bandwidth? Plus on a local LAN is this really a problem (assuming at least 100 base hardware)?
I would explore a bit more and see if you can track down some specifics. Are multiple machines connecting to the WSUS server and transferring content? Are they connecting and just stalling? Are they connecting at all or just trying like crazy? -troy From: David W.

They can't download files from a downed website. Are you sure WSUS is the cause of your load? From: David W. McSpadden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2008 11:06 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Stop WSUS updates Ok I have them stopped. But the load is still to high. Could the PC's still be downloading even if WSUS and WWW is dead? ----- Original Message ----- From: Damien Solodow<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: NT System Admin Issues<mailto:ntsysadmin@lyris.sunbelt-software.com> Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2008 11:04 AM Subject: RE: Stop WSUS updates Then stop the Wsus and www services on your wsus server.
