    As I told Leon before, we use SUS on a non-domain win2k server to
    provide patches to 35 workstations, who are on a domain. Using either
    manual registry hacks or GPEDIT.msc to set the location of the SUS
    server gets around the use of domain policies. While you have to use
    GPEDIT.msc on each machine individually, it is more fool-proof than
    editing the registry manually.

    I have used SUS, and I am thinking that it is not
    domain oriented. You could use the Registry settings
    that are in Deployment guide
    (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/sus/susdeployment.mspx)
    in order to point the Servers to the SUS box. We did
    more than a few boxes that way. Also, I would make
    sure that all the servers don't reboot all at once. I
    attached a sample .reg that I renamed so that it
    passes through most virus filters. It has been some
    time since I looked at it but I think that these
    settings will reboot the clients automatically.

    Regards,
    Chris
