Toolkit to Temporarily Block Delivery of Windows Server 2003 SP2
The blocking tool will also prevent the Windows Server 2003 SP2 from being offered through Windows Update and Microsoft Update more>>
The blocking utility also prevents the Windows Server 2003 SP2 from being offered through Microsoft Update and Windows Update.
Please note that the mechanism to temporarily disable delivery of Windows Server 2003 SP2 will be available until March 13, 2008. At the end of this period, Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 will be delivered to all Windows Server 2003 servers.
This toolkit contains three components:
- A Microsoft-signed executable
- A script
- An ADM template
1) The executable creates the registry key and sets the associated value on the server upon which it is run, to block or unblock (depending on the command-line option used) the delivery of Windows Server 2003 SP2 to that server, through AU or WU. The key used is HKLMSoftwarePoliciesMicrosoftWindowsWindowsUpdate.
When the /B command line option is used, the key value name ?DoNotAllowSP? is created and its value sets to ?1?. This value blocks delivery of Windows Server 2003 SP2 to the server through AU or WU.
When the /U command line option is used, the previously created registry value that temporarily blocked the delivery of Windows Server 2003 SP2 to the server through AU or WU is removed. If the value does not exist on the server from which it is run, no action is taken.
2) The script does the same thing as the executable, but allows specification of the machine name upon which the action should be taken, so a remote system can be specified on which to block or unblock delivery of Windows Server 2003 SP2.
Note that the executable and script have been tested only as a command-line tool and not in conjunction with other systems management tools or remote execution mechanisms.
3) The ADM template allows administrators to import the new group policy settings to block or unblock delivery of Windows Server 2003 SP2 into their Group Policy environment, and use Group Policy to centrally execute the action across systems in their environment.

It uses the Windows Vista KMS key provided through Microsoft?s Volume Licensing System portals (MVLS, eOpen). The KMS host can be activated using either online or offline methods.

Windows Server Update Services 3.0
Windows Server Update Services with Service Pack 1 (WSUS SP1) is a software that delivers updates for WSUS more>>
Instructions
Before installing WSUS 3.0, see the Release Notes for WSUS 3.0 available from the related resources area on this page. If you are installing WSUS 3.0 on Small Business Server 2003 R2, see the SBS white paper available from the related resources on this page.
Important configuration issue: You must overwrite the proxy server password in the configuration wizard
If you are using a proxy server that requires username/password authentication, the WSUS server may fail to synchronize updates if you do not overwrite the proxy server password when running the WSUS Server Configuration Wizard. Since the configuration wizard is launched automatically at the end of setup, this problem can cause synchronization errors after you upgrade from an older version of WSUS to WSUS 3.0.
You can avoid this problem by cancelling the Configuration Wizard after upgrade, or by reentering the correct proxy password when the wizard runs. To recover from this problem once it has occurred, go to ?Options/Update Source and Proxy Server?, reenter the proxy password, and save the setting.
Additional Information
The shortcut to launch WSUS 3.0 Administration Console can be found in the Administrative Tools folder. For Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista, the Administrative Tools folder can be found in the Control Panel.
