Is there a way to update several computers at once on a Windows 2000
Server network?
It seems very time consuming to do all of these individually, and I
don't trust Microsoft's Auto update program. I'm also selectively
picking which updates to run, but pretty much the same ones on most of
the machines.

Most of the machines are Windows 98SE computers.
That site only mentioned 2000 or XP Professional machines.
Any way to do this on Windows 98SE machines from a Windows 2000 Server
(other through the network somehow)?
