SUS Client

[John Smith]

Appreciate if you can provide me tips to use Microsoft SUS.

I've installed and fully sync my SUS server.
I've also approved most of the updates which downloaded at the SUS server.

The question is about the client side, how do I configure the client to link
to this SUS server to retrieve the Windows Update.
- by registry change?
- by Group Policy?

Also, I tried to install at the client, the SUS client v2.2 (Microsoft
Windows
Update Auto Update), it prompts me that it must be Windows 2000 SP2 or
Windows XP, whereby mine is already XP SP1. Click OK stops the installation.


Thank you.

Read the deployment documentation from:

The 2.2 client is already included in W2K SP3 and XP SP1.
