Is there a way to put Windows updates on "hold" on client computers and distribute
them when necessary from the server?
In other words, we would ultimately like to have our Windows 2000 Server download
the updates, install them on test machines, verify the proper functionality of the
updates, and then distribute them when WE"RE ready onto the client pc's in the network.
Any suggestions?
