SUS Microsoft Updates run silently?
I am having a problem configuring the SUS Microsoft client machines for the windows updates. We are trying to deploy this over a network of 2K Pro and XP Pro.
I have the SUS server set up fine and the updates do install if I am logged on in admin account but when I log on as a student account nothing happens. Also I get a notify pop up in the task bar when logged on as admin, I shouldn’t get this.
I have read the documents and made the changes via Group Policy.
Is it possible to have the machines on the network install the updates if no one is logged on, just the machines are turned on & without any pop ups, any notifies or admin rights on the machine? The SUS Client wont install on the network machines so we are using the Patch Management.exe
Here is a copy of the .reg file from a 2000 pro machine. (The windows Update Branch)
Can anyone see any problems?

Re: SUS Microsoft Updates run silently?
First of all, the reg you should post here is [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate]
Here my reg export of my a WinXP Workstation connection to a SUS Server. Everythink after --> is a comment
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate]
"WUServer"="REMOVE" --> I remove my server name here. http://isaproxy is good for you.
"WUStatusServer"="REMOVE" --> I remove my server name here. http://isaproxy is good for you.
