Wsus Script

Hello,
I have a server 2003 box with Wsus 3.0 Sp2 on it.  This update server is
tied to our domain though GP.  However we do a serious amount of
computer prepping for other people.  What I am looking for is a way for
me to use our current update server, on computers that are not part and
will not be part of our domain.  Maybe some sort of script that I can
edit in my server's IP and have it force update/reboot the client
computers.  I Understand I can edit the local policy, but I was hoping
for a one time thing, once the updates are applied the pc can then use
Microsoft's update site.  Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
Joe

it is really as simple as REG file which you can load from a USB key.

it is really as simple as  REG file which you can load from a USB key.

Define a target group on your WSUS Server to use for these systems and set
your approvals as desired. You might even consider setting expired deadlines
on that group to force immediate installations of all updates.

Then put this text in a REG key
======================================
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

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

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

And put this text in another REG key to 'undo' the above and restore normal
AU functionality
======================================
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

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

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