I've installed MS Software Update Service (MS SUS) on my win2K network. I've configured the SUS server. It's retriving updates from MS update site. But problem is how to configure clients using GPO. When I open GPO & then check Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates then there is no Windows Updates folder. as MS SUS suggests to configure clients using option under Windows Updates at that location.

Any idea why its not showing that folder. I've w2k SP3 installed on all PCs. I know there are registry keys to configure clients. But it would be easier to configure using GPO.

I have not yet tried MS SUS, but my guess would be to try to load the administrative template. Right click on Administrative Templates and select Add/Remove Templates and then choose Add from the Add/Remove Templates window.

Thats the answer. Even though I found this in an SUS deployment guide. On any DC follow the above steps & open wuau.adm template on any OU > GPO. Then you would be able to configure SUS options using GPO.
