Hi Everyone

We currectly have an upstream server & about 30 downstream servers, we have now installed a new server that we would like to use as the upstream server with a diferent name, the question I have is this, would there be a way to change the update source on all 30 downstream servers without having to visit each server ?

Thanks

Leon

There doesn't appear to be any obvious or direct command option for wsusutil.exe (see article), however, there may be a registry key which stores and maintains this setting. I have not tested this however. My gut feeling is that you would need to visit each server (remotely) and make the change manually.
