I'm sorry for so many questions that I've been doing here in the forum, but I'm looking for new knowledge.

Can wapt be an alternative to wsus for "windows updates"?
You can selectively deploy KB like you would install software with WAPT.
Ok. Thanks Denis!!dcardon a écrit : ↑01 févr. 2018 - 22:03 Hi empbilly,
You can selectively deploy KB like you would install software with WAPT.
However a WSUS replacement is a bit more work: it need to get updates list from Microsoft, feed it to the local workstation wuauserv service, it will spit out a list of KB it need, and from that you need a mechanism to download those KB, pipe them in wuauserv's cache and trigger the update. It is poorly documented, and is really not fun to implement (I've been through it).
The positive point recently however is that it is getting easier with monthly rollup and cumulative updates (as long as you don't need to to break up the cumulative update and reject one small piece of it).
Actually we have internally a functionnal PoC of Windows Updates service based on WAPT. It need to be cleaned up and polished, and will be integrated into WAPT Enterprise Edition.
Cheers,
Denis
