run the prepare script in the tools folder, it _should_ take care of the
downloading of all the updates.
you can specify 2 parameters to it:
1. the language (ENU, NLD, ...)
2. a specific filename (so you dont have it traverse all files)
Now, first of all, there are some scripts that contain links that are NOT
valid anymore, some of them are M$ (moved to different location), some are
other things that just moved to new versions.
Second, i think the idea of this system is nice, but managing it is a royal
pain in the 4$$. Keeping an online DB with the links that can be used to
sync against would be a lot more interesting.
Also, for some updates (especially when installing win2ksp3) there are unmet
dependencies (eg when installing the IE6 updates...)
The best solution regarding the (windows/office/IE) updates i think would be
to have some sort of SUS running on your network. (there is a free
implementation of sus for linux, though the author is russian and most extra
work that is done is commented in russian, there is very limited english
docs available. Try googling for susfl)
For the other updates/downloads, the improvement of using a central db
wouldn't be that big.
ok, time to stop rambling and get back to work :)
