Where can we view a list of fixes / updates in SP1? The release notes on the SP1 download page point to a generic V3.0 page..

And will the service pack distribute itself via WSUS?

Great news, thanks a lot.

One question, will there be a localized version of WSUS 30 SP1 or can one safely install the new (US) build on German SBS 2003 R2 (following the special upgrade instructions for SBS)?

Thanks, Stefen

I've upgraded our primary WSUS server and when I open the OPtions, it has a banner at the bottom stating that it is still processing a configuration change. Does the system require a post-installation reboot?

re: WSUS 3.0 SP1 is now RTM!!!

WSUS user — Fri, 08 Feb 2008 22:28:46 GMT

If the SMTP password is long (>= 12 chars), then the upgrade could fail with the above issue.

A work-around is to set the SMTP password to be something smaller temporarily, do the upgrade and set to the correct password after upgrade.

Here's more info:

Yep - I have the audacity of having a SMTP password of 12 or more characters - changing it to "123" temporaily in the UI fixes this. Crappy testing Microsoft!!!

Not exactly thrilled with the install. Before I can run the install it checks for a gig of free space on the C drive. I'm not even going to install this update there, but it still checks.

If I'm lucky I'll have space cleared for the update today.

How about some enhanced reporting in the next SP?

It deleted my computer groups and group memberships! The computers show up in the All Computers and Unassigned Computers groups. Is it supposed to do that? I found nothing in the docs saying it would. It seems to have kept the update approvals and synchronization history.

UpdateMe — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 01:17:17 GMT

To be honest I am not sure if this is the best way to pose these questions so please forgive my ignorance in advance.

How can I control where the automatic updates are downloaded to?

It appears that they seem to create a temporary folder on the volume with the largest amount of available capacity.

Some of my volumes are special purpose and I do not want the update files even if they are temporary to be created there.

Is there a chance that the update files will actually have the temporary attributes set so that we can identify them as temporary files in the first place?

If I tighten the security the update process fails the install with an erro code 0x05.

Is there any way I can exclude a volume or volumes from being eligible to be used by the update process?

Thank you for your kind attention.

Can WSUS SP1 be installed on Windows server 2008 "we server edtion" so I do not need to by any CAL ?

I found that there was some cal needed on server 2003 web edition for the database backend of WSUS but that limitation on database is no normally more there for server 2008..

I cannot found that information confirming that anywhere...

Why Windows Update in Windows Vista show me old Windows Live Products (optional update) dated november 2007 ? Why Windows Live Writer appears 2 time: 1 dated november 2007 and oner dated 2008 ?

Why these products after 2 minutes are vanished from Windows Update? What happens? Bug in Windows Update?

Hi,

I applied SP1 yesterday and seemed to go just fine, thank you.

When will we be able to do automatic approvals based on some more variables? I'd like to be able to auto-appove something like the Malicious Software Removal tool or Root Certificates, but to do that I have to (unless I missed something) allow the entire category of updates it falls under to be auto-approved.

Thank you.

I figured it out. Out Web filter was blocking content from being downloaded. It is working great now. no errors.
