Windows Update Catalog - Scanning & Installing updates locally

h0stn0tf0und · 2006-04-23 15:17:38

Hey all Is there any tool that scans / installs the updates from a local source? The idea would be to have an update disc that could be run without connecting to WU. If there isnt such a tool I could write a batch file to install them? This is directed towards Win 98 / ME not 2k or xp. Thanks

You could setup WSUS if you had a 2000 Server handy :rolleyes:

The switches for patches changed a lot from early to late 98 so you would have to look up then individially if you want to script an unattended install.
