I set ours up using policies at the OU level. No real gotchas other than
the ones typically associated with patching in general. I use only one
WSUS sever. For the WAN sites, I just set a max bandwidth and set it to
update in the evenings.

Subject: [THIN] Setting up WSUS
First time with responsibility of setting up/maintaining a WSUS.
In my reading of WSUS setup guide and browse thru operations guide
appears have choice of using computer groups or using GP. Question is
can I still make use of computer groups fully if setting up via GP? I
suppose the other way to do this would be to link WSUS GP at OU levels
which would be similar to computer groups. Basically would like ability
to time when diff. groups of computers are being updated.
A peek at deployment guide and looks like you can chain WSUS together
which would help in WAN situations. Does that work well?
Also important to ask what are the very basic pitfalls to avoid with any
rollout of WSUS? About 200 desktops at head office and another 70 spread
out over 4 far away remote sites _ other countries/continents.
