Can you make a windows 2003 SUS Server a client of itself by using this same technique you would to a small client network ?


Open your registry and find or create the key below.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]

Create a new DWORD value called "UseWUServer" and set it to "1" to use custom update servers or delete the value to use the default Internet site.

Then open the key

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate]

and create two new string values called "WUServer" and "WUStatusServer", set these values to the names of the custom update servers (e.g. "
Restart Windows for the changes to take effect.

and if not , is there any other way this can be done ?
 
You should post this in the Windows 2003 forum forum931.
