I read somewhere that you cannot use the SUS on a domain controller. I just recently installed SUS on my win2k server running AD, DNS, and DC. So far, i can't tell if this is working. I tried installing the client software, but it keeps on telling me that i need to be running windows 2000 or windows XP, which i am running the latter. Does anybody have any suggestions to tell is SUS is working correctly?

Note that you can't use it to apply service packs; but it's *great* for applying other patches. And it's one product that you don't have to pay MS for. :-) We've been using it for patch deployment for over a year now, and it works great. Takes all the manual labor out of keeping our systems up to date. -- Su --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Evaluating SSL VPNs' Consider NEOTERIS, chosen as leader by top analysts!
