What happens when you do not have a policy domain where we can send to customers? Whether or if we set local policies or best solution, do it the Windows Registry (Registry).

I appreciate the response, I've created. reg file with the parameters you recommended. But I have several questions, and find out if my pc with windows xp it is updating or not?. I have Windows 2000 with WSUS installed and I can configure from http: \ \ win2000 \ WSUSAdmin in WUServer registry entry that I put the server url? And another question in the administration of wsus on the team, I do not see any equipment, such as add or do. I tell you that yes, if you create entries exist to apply. You can create them in a machine, and then export them by double clicking on it .Reg import them on another PC. These tickets are for Windows XP.
