I love SUS.
It means:
1. only one internal host needs to contact Windows Update. ..ever
2. all the currently-approved patches are internally available regardless of
the Internet connection state
3. I can control what patches are delivered to which OS's
4. by using GPO or registry settings, I can also prevent the user from
disabling AU (because they're not local admins)
The only thing you want to be aware of is storage; the more OS's and flavors
you support, the more storage you need for patches.
I personally don't combine ISA with my web services, but YMMV...

Hi Amy,
Is it wise to have a separate box setup to contain the sus information?
And would this fit for both
In the DMZ and internal networks in a back to back setup? I would like
to think that having a separate
Machine to monitor for SUS would be a good idea that way you can sever
publish it and make your update
Machine even more secure.
Thank you,
Joseph

Some good news from Microsoft. I just discovered this today in the
welcome screen for my SUS (System Update Services).
"Microsoft Software Update Services (SUS) now provides Windows service
packs (SPs), in addition to critical and security updates. SUS will
deliver Windows XP SP1, Windows 2000 SP4, and all future service packs
for Windows 2000, Windows XP, and the Windows Server(tm) 2003 family of
products."
