I'm not having problems with WSUS, I'm having problems determining if the 
clients are hogging up a T1 line with updates due to BITS not throttling 
correctly.

I was unable to find BITSADMIN.EXE on my WSUS server, and then I discover BITS 
server extensions aren't installed for IIS...I'm assuming w/out that installed 
BITS can't work, or is that just for IIS specific stuff? The WSUS server is 
running the BITS service....or is that just the client side?

Confused,
Dave

WindowsUpdate.log file should probably be the first point of call for checking 
issues with WSUS

bitsadmin.exe /list /allusers  would tell you current jobs and status

I'd enable logging on the client if going down that route.

Cheers
Ken

Oh! Who knew!  LOL.  Would I do this on the WSUS server, or an each client? 
Would these steps apply as far as WSUS is concerned?

Does anyone know of a method to test if BOTS is actually working between point 
A and point B?
