Folks, I recently implemented a workstation management product that does patching (Windows updates, Acrobat, and a few other vendors). Until now we used a WSUS server and it worked fine. What I am seeing is workstations are still registering with the WSUS server, the server not yet retired. What are your recommendations to stop this. I could do any of the following: - write a script so that customized WSUS registry keys are removed/set back to default. These registry edits were done pre-Active Directory when we used Zenworks. - disable or set to manual automatic updates using a GPO The new management software has its own agent so I don't need automatic updates to be enabled. But I do wish it not to be disabled should we need to manually run updates for some reason. Recommendations?
