FW: Windows SUS Question

["Kelly Fuller" <kelly () ccgsecurity com>]

 My understanding is that you can deploy the settings required for
clients to connect to the SUS server, in a few ways. You can manually
change the system to connect to the SUS server via a local policy. Then
they can use the proper server from that point to manage patches.

Hi everyone,

My question regarding SUS is dealing with security
permissions.  Lets say 20 servers are part of a work
group; is their still a way to use SUS under the
context of the local system account or something
similar to be able to centrally deploy patches in a de-centralizied
network environment.  I have a workgroup that needs to have patches
deployed and I would prefer to use something like SUS which is central
as opposed to something like Hfnetcheck pro.

Thanks in advance,

Leon
