I have configured the (Windows 2000 & XP) clients on the LAN to use Squid as a proxy for web access. This (mostly) works without any issues (for other sites)
except for the Windows security updates.

Can anything be done about this

One thing the FAQ doesn't seem clear on. Does this command (proxycfg -p proxy_ip_address:port_number) affect manually visiting WindowsUpdates using the web-browser? Or is it only Automatic Updates? I would've thought it was for Automatic Updates only.

I use a SUS server for AutoUpdates because of the proxy, but occasionally want to visit WindowsUpdates. Would the proxycfg command screw-up updates via our local SUS server in any way?

Cheers
