Shavlik is what we're currently using. Looking to move away from it, possibly.
>>> "Andy Ognenoff" <[email protected]> 10/5/2009 10:01 AM >>> I use Shavlik for Workstations and Servers. Workstations get updates within a day of release and servers I wait at least 2 weeks unless it's a critical with active exploitation type vulnerability. Using Shavlik the way I do for servers allows me to "manually" patch them without visiting each server individually. *Added benefit is that Shavlik has built in support for lots of 3rd party apps - Adobe Reader, Flash, Java, etc. - Andy O. >-----Original Message----- >From: Joseph Heaton [mailto:[email protected]] >Sent: Tuesday, September 29, 2009 12:04 PM >To: NT System Admin Issues >Subject: WSUS question > >Do you guys use WSUS for server updates? > >If so, how do you handle auto-restarts?
