In our network we need to install all update on a PC before it goes on the domain. We have WSUS server in our network which push out updates to all PC on domain.

I can push out update on a PC which is not on a domain by editing local policy (same group policy like Domain PC's). I have to manuall do this on eacy PC, is there a quick way like script or import etc. Any one tried what I am trying to do?
 
I use a .reg to update WSUS settings and push it out with either Zenworks or domain login script as we run a mix of domain and non-domain workstations. The following is what i set:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate]
"WUServer"=""WUStatusServer"=""ElevateNonAdmins"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]
"AUOptions"=dword:00000004
"NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers"=dword:00000001
"NoAutoUpdate"=dword:00000000
"RescheduleWaitTime"=dword:00000010
"ScheduledInstallDay"=dword:00000000
"ScheduledInstallTime"=dword:00000011
"UseWUServer"=dword:00000001
"AutoInstallMinorUpdates"=dword:00000001
"DetectionFrequency"=dword:00000002
"DetectionFrequencyEnabled"=dword:00000001

Here is a list of what options you can set:


Not sure if this what you are looking.

what script to I use? I dont want to change registry on each PC, that's time consuming.
once that non-domain workstation joins domain how do I undo registry or GPO settings?

Right now I use domain polciy for domain PC.
