Hi

Yes, that is supposed to work.


Fyi, there is a separate newsgroup for SUS:

microsoft.public.softwareupdatesvcs

news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...wareupdatesvcs

URL to the group softwareupdatesvcs for those who uses the Web
interface to access the newsgroups:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserv...wareupdatesvcs

A Web site about SUS with a FAQ and a SUS forum:

Hi Torgeir,

Do I need to install the 'old' SUS client on this machine already running de
newer v5 client?

Thanks,
John

Torgeir,

Re: Yes
Thats the easy part!

Do you have any suggestion what I can do to fix this problem?
My SUS server is running on a Windows 2003 server.

Thanks,
John

Hi

I see that you have posted to the microsoft.public.softwareupdatesvcs
group now. Let us see if anybody comes up with something there.
