Is it possible to push a hotfix that is not available to the general public
using WSUS?

The answer is no for two reasons.

1. WSUS is a pull technology.
2. WSUS will only distribute content sync'd from the MS update servers.

The product you are looking for is called SMS.

I've read that you can download a hotfix from microsoft. Copy the file to
the wsus database and then approve for installation. A friend of mine
actually did that acrossed the tower from us and it worked. Sorry I don't
have the details, i'm sure you could google it though.

Hi,
That is not supported and I have not heard anyone in this NG doing
that.

You might want to get the steps from your friend to accomplish the
same.

Happy Patching,
