windows update on cumputers used by users with no admin privileges

Hello,

I have little problems with windows updates on win xp sp3 computers.
My network is composed of 2 DC w2k3 and about 130 computers.
I also have WSUS v.3 installed on dedicated server.
Some domain users are local administrators on their computers and others are
not.
For people with admin privileges, windows updates are working perfectly.
For others, I can't find the solution. I must go to each computer, login
manually with adimnistrator login and execute windows updates.

Is there any automated solution for windows updates for computers used with
non-admin users?

many thanks for your answers.

Regards,

Adi

The WindowsUpdate NG deals with client issues, Adi.

This would be the default situation for WSUS unless you have not set option 4
(scheduled install). A little about the configured options you have implemented
would help.
