wsus on sbs 2003 non r2

Hi,
Can't find a good answer to this, but can I install the WSUS on a non r2 SBS
2003 standard server?

My company has a 2nd location, and they will be keeping this older server
and OS, until we move to SBS 2008, then they will get our R2 SBS server as a
hand me down.

Right now, users are on their own with updates, and we know how that works.
I would love to install WSUS on that server and at least have a little more
control over what is going on update-wise.

TIA

Yes just follow documentation and use alternate port (8530). R2 and 08
integrates WSUS into SBS management, but you might be more comfortable with
a more typical WSUS managment.

Put the content somewhere else besides the system partition.
