Working on SCUP and SCCM to get these under my wing. But can not have 400 pc’s all trying to update at the same time. Gives me fits and is a better DDOS attack than anything the script kiddies can think up. I have to have control of when and what is updated on these machines.

If you've got Internet-connected PCs running these applications, you're just asking to get bitten if you don't keep them up to date. A managed strategy with reporting is best, but auto-updating is better than nothing (and certainly better than willfully keeping them out of date.) </> On Mon, Nov 16, 2015 at 8:57 AM, David McSpadden <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: I have put in place the GPO’s for these but apparently I don’t have the right settings.
