    Hey all ...

    Found what seems to be a very useful SUS / WSUS support site earlier on when I was troubleshooting a SUS GPO related issue.

    Linky here

    Don't recall ever seeing it here before, apologies if it's old. :)

    Nice Find! :thumbleft

    For someone who will be implementing WSUS instead of SUS in a few months time this could be a great help! :biggrin

    SUS really stinks, WSUS is like a breath of fresh air in comparison. :)

    WSUS seems quite useful, but tbh I wouldn't miss it if it wasn't around.

    not even when you have 1000s of workstations, and 100s of servers? sure, there are other ways of deploying security updates, but i know i would definitely miss wsus if it wasn't around anymore.

    If I had that many, then yes, but I don't. Fair point though. :)

    we have a downstream wsus server in every office all across the world, and we manage the deployment of the security updates centrally at the data center. wsus is definitely a great asset to us.
