In the current file there is a windows update setting to "Specify intranet Microsoft update service location" that would allow you to create a GPO to indicate the server location from which to retrieve updates via url (http:// location for the server). This worked great with WSUS 2.0. Does this work for WSUS 3.0 or am I miss... 4 5/29/2007 6:44:02 PM Upgrade from WSUS 2.0 SP1 to WSUS 3.0 error I have recieved the following error when upgrading one of my 2.0 SP1 boxes.

We have a "computer operations" group, and it's their role to log on and install updates. Obviously they need some rights to log on and install updates, but I don't want to give them administrator rights otherwise they'll have much more priviledge than they need. Thanks.

Scott... 1 5/29/2007 2:16:01 PM WSUS 3 Database Problems I have recently upgraded WSUS 2 to 3 and have been having some problems with its database. This was a double upgrade (not a good idea, I know!) as WSUS 2 was running on Windows 2000 and MSDE previously, requiring me to upgrade the OS to Windows 2003 SP2 first before upgrading WSUS.

Per the title - running up a slight problem applying W2k3 SP2 to some machines whose C: drives are a little on the tight side for space. If I could pass an argument to the installer so it kicks off and creates the uninstall directory to the alternative loaction I specify, that would be great. I can't find any documentation on how I might accomplish this, so assume it's not an out-of-the-bo... 3 5/28/2007 4:22:27 PM Clients not Reporting I've installed WSUS 3.0, and all my clients are being detected, and they're in the right Computer Group.
