Download from microsoft website which folder put them in

[lookoutnoob]

One more question because im curious:
Will a client normally download only updates for the OS? or also .NET, office etc?
Will the client download the .Net and office download when it has Microsoft Updates enabled?

wsusou downloads the updates based on your selection (OS, .NET, Office, C++, Silverlight, MSSE are supported).

Okay, and normally? without using any wsus-attribute?

There are two update levels at MS:


Windows Update (You receive Updates: For Windows only) gets only core OS updates.

Microsoft Update (You Receive Updates: For Windows and other products from Microsoft Update) gets Updates for Windows, Office, Silverlight, .NET, C++ etc.

I cannot find those KB-numbers in windows 7 32-bit:

Code: Select all

3020369
2990214
3024777

Any idea why? Do you guys get those updates?
I my wsusscn2 file too old?

Also: for example when im updating windows server 2008 SP1, I only want it to download the updates in SP1 and I do not want it to upgrade its OS to SP2, is this where the

Code: Select all

includesp=Enabled

is for?

If you got Server 2008 with SP1, wsusou will not be able to install all updates as after some time MS does not include the files for SP1 systems. These updates won't install.

The three updates you listed are optional updates (the first & last) and are not included in wsusscn2.cab. I wasn't able to find the second one in MS' knowledge base. If you want to include them, you have to manually add them as static updates.

Thanks for the reply, I am learning a lot by you.
I have a new question regarding making a script. Since u good with scripting ans im not i thought you could help me:
I want to have a script what runs xx.exe file on my client everytime i want to. So i have a few computers with xx.exe on their desktop and i want to run this file on a random time, so not when the computer starts up or every 1month. I read about psexec.exe but have no idea how to script it.

Thanks in advance

What about a script like:

Code: Select all

set MyTest=%RANDOM%
set /a MyTest/=1000
rem MyTest should now contain a number in the range 0-20
if %MyTest% GTR 10 (
 xx.exe
)
