Mirroring WindowsUpdate?
Posted by Linn Kubler on August 13th, 2003


Hi,

I'm just wondering if it is possible to setup a Windows Update mirror site
at my corp. so that it will automatically download all updates from
Microsoft and allow me to go to say... linnsupdate.mycorp.com instead of
windowsupdate.microsoft.com?

This would surely help me maintain my systems without having to rely on the
Internet completely. Right now I'm finding it very difficult to download
anything from windowsupdate.microsoft.com.

Any thoughts on this?
Thanks inadvance,
Linn

Ooh, yeah that looks like it. I don't have a Windows 2000 server right now
to utilize for this but expect to in the not too distant future. This even
looks to be free from what I can tell, that's cool.

Thanks,
Linn
