Re: Win2000 server WSUS?



Assuming you are running an AD domain the cheapest solution would be to
install WSUS on your server and setup a group policy to have the clients
download the updates from that server. WSUS and the SQL Desktop Edition that
is uses are both free. You will also need IIS, which is also free.
