I use sysinternals' psinfo.exe and psexec.exe to install patches on remote
PC's. Works real good. Setup for /f scripts to go through all pc's in the
domain and do the updates. Then I check to make sure the updates applied by
checking with psinfo and/or the port scanning tools that Microsoft created
to check for vulnerabilities.

Subject: [windows2000] Microsoft Update
I have a problem. I own Microsoft products.
:-)
My problem is the MS comes out with their updates like the one I see today,
and I'm suppose to implement it to every desktop ASAP and the only way to do
that is manually go to every station and do it. Problem is I have 3 branch
offices and servers I have to manage and going to every desktop tends to
mean that my updates stay a good 3 months behind. Due to recent viruses
that I've been attacked by, I now have to update as soon as the stupid patch
comes out. How can I stream line this process. I know I could use SMS but
that is expensive. Is there any other way of getting all my machines up to
date by pushing out the update? I use Norton Antivirus 9 and it pushes out
it's client install to all my desktops which is really sweet. That kind of
functionality would be a big help. I just need a good cheap solution.
