Controlling Who Can Update

We have divisional admins who need to be able to do administrative work on
their servers, but we don't want them to install the updates sent out by our
WSUS server. Currently, the servers download the updates, but do not install
them. Is there a way we can control who can install the updates without
having to resort to updating manually?

Thanks

Brian

It would be best to post this to the WSUS NG, Brian:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...pdate_services

That link *should* work in OE

I tried there, but it seems to me this has more to do with the client
settings than the WSUS server.

Thanks

Group Policy would be one way to achieve this, Brian.
