Windows Update Local Network Server
I'll be setting up a small network for a client in the next few days, which will consist of 9 computers, all running Windows 7 Professional.
Now, I was thinking, instead of each computer being set to downlaod updates, which would in effect result in the same update being downloaded 9 times, is there a way to perhaps have one of the computers (perhaps a 10th computer in the network can be added and assigned the job) download ALL updates, whether they are required or not, and then have Windows Update point to the "cache" machine and get their appropriate updates from there?
I ask because Internet bandwidth in South Africa is horribly expensive, and ISPs abitralily and forcibly slow you down if they detect that you are "over using your connection".
In order to keep costs down, I'd prefer to not have to setup a machine with Windows Server 2008, and would like to do this with ONLY Windows 7 Professional...
