Hi.
Having trouble with the automatic update feature on some windows 2000 boxes. The service is started, but the pc does not check for updates automatically.

Does anyone know which security settings are needed on the pc to allow automatic updating?

Any other suggestions?

Thanks
Michelle

hmm,
let's make sure you followed the deployment whitepaper: it's included here just in case:

do you have error messages in the particular pc's ?
what service pack's are those pc's running, and the users that are using the other pc's that are using the sus client , are they normal users are do they have higher priviliges.
Check the whitepaper and let me know.
