Windows XP Automatic Update
Does anyone know how exactly the auto-update feature works.. I have been
seeing this across the school district at times.. Say for example - I have a lab full of windows xp-sp2 computers.. they are all set to reeive updateas automatically at 5:00AM.. If I go into look at them, about 1/2 of them got the updates from last Tueaday, and about half never automaticall downloaded and installed the update.. All computers in that lab have been turned on 24 hours a day since last Tuesday Any ideas ?? Thanks in advance Doug

Windows XP Automatic Update
Doug,
There was extremely heavy traffic at Windows/Microsoft Update last week. Some of my systems received the updates, most didn't. Manually download them either by using the Windows Update link on the Start Menu or in IE, or obtain them from the MS Download Center: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/search.asp If the computers are networked through a server you could utilize WSUS to push the updates to them : http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserv...s/default.mspx MowGreen [MVP 2003-2006] =============== *-343-* FDNY Never Forgotten =============== Doug wrote: Does anyone know how exactly the auto-update feature works..
