Recently we aquired about 50 windows vista business systems and I would like to know the following regarding updating windows vista on all these sytems through LAN.
Is it possible for me to update one windows vista system (call it vista-1) from internet and then update all the other systems from vista-1? We dont use windows 2003/2008 server, instead we use samba.
I updated the vista-1 system from internet and tried to update vista-2 system using
Group Policy
--> computer configuration
--> Administrative templates
--> Windows componants
--> Windows Update -->
Specifiy Intranet Microsoft Update service Location
and
Configur Automatic Updates.
Is it possible to update Vista systems in a LAN from another Vista system which gets updated from internet using the above mentioned group policies?? If yes, what could be mistake I made?
On the vista-2 system I enabled "Specifiy Intranet Microsoft Update service Location" and tried vista-1 as both "Set the Intranet update service for Detecting Updates" and "Set the Intranet statistics server".
I also tried http://vista-1 as "Set the Intranet update service for Detecting Updates" and "Set the Intranet statistics server" on vista-2 sytem.
I also configured vista-2 to check for update every day at a particular time.
But vista-2 failed to get updated.
When I manually run windows update from vista-2, It gives the following error:
"Errors found: Code 80072EE6"
If its not possible to update vista systems from another vista system, is there a way it can be done using a samba server??
Hope someone would be able to help me out.
Regards
