    This morning I learned that when deploying SP2 with SUS the client computers
    do not silently install the service pack at the scheduled time. Instead
    they wait for a user login and prompt to start the SP2 Wizard and EULA.
    Users can also cancel the install at this point. Obviously this is a MAJOR
    problem. I know it's not just us, I've heard from other schools
    experiencing the same problem.
