Not really... You can specify that the user be reprompted every so often to reboot though...

Would that option in GPO give the user the ability to suspend a reboot or is the user not prompted with the option? If it gives the user the option to reboot later, can a forced reboot be applied if the has not been rebooted after about 8hrs after patch applied.? Thanks Dave "Sullivan, Glenn" <GSullivan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Sure... The only time W SUS will only install one patch at a time is when the patch in question is required for the proper use of WSUS. So, the first time they all connect, your clients will probably install the BITS update, and the Windows Installer update. But after that, they will download the whole lot (or what can be done in one sitting... for example, SP2 has to be done by itself.) As to the restart option, set this Group Policy option: No Auto-restart for scheduled Automatic Update installations - Enabled HTH, Glenn Sullivan, MCSE+I MCDBA David Clark Company Inc. ________________________________ From: windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dave stevens Posted At: Tues day, December 13, 2005 10:25 AM Posted To: Windows 2000 Conversation: [windows2000] WSUS configuration Subject: [windows2000] WSUS configuration Hi Guys, Just installed WSUS, and from what I can see loads of pc's on our network have not been patched in quite a while. Which means I have a lot of work pushing stuff out. My question, is there a way to push out more than 1 update and have the pc's restart only once. Also is it possible to have the user control when the pc should be restarted after the update has been installed, and by whom. Thanks Dave ________________________________ Yahoo!
