brewdude6 brewdude6 Hey THIS is FUN Registered: 2000-10-21 Posts: 280 Loc: Nashville, TN	Are any of you using a commercial patch management solution? If so, what is it and I'd like your opinions.

Best of all, it's gonna be free. To be released in Q2. Edited by masken (2005-01-17 11:00 PM) _________________________ The tart is out there

We spend countless hours attempting to do the same task that other groups in our company spend very few hours doing with Altiris.

masken masken MM club member Registered: 2000-11-27 Posts: 1222 Loc: Gothenburg, Sweden	I was on a TechNet workshop a few months ago where an early WUS beta was demo'd. I was very impressed at the stage of development it was then already. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/wus/default.mspx Edited by masken (2005-01-18 11:24 AM) _________________________ The tart is out there

brewdude6 brewdude6 Hey THIS is FUN Registered: 2000-10-21 Posts: 280 Loc: Nashville, TN	I've installed the beta and tried it out on some test servers. How does WUS differ from SUS? _________________________ I could have made a neat retort but didn't, for I was flurried and didn't think of it till I was downstairs. -Mark Twain

This fine addition to the *US line of products will remotely wipe Linux off any corporate computer and install a proper copy of Windows XP SP2. _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.
