For Windows updates, you might also want to give http://www.wsusoffline.net/ a try. Has a downloader that works both on Windows and Linux (possibly FreeBSD too, with the proper pacakges installed - never tried that, though) and allows you to fetch critical updates. You can then either offer them on a SMB share or burn ISOs. It comes with a script (AutoIT3, but also available as precompiled EXE) which will cycle through the list of available patches and install all the updates needed on the particular client it is running on. -Stefan _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
