Additional Info for this topic by Don Jones. I am looking at using his method to update what I have in place with my smaller clients.
Click PopUp to download Word file with VBS code.
I found the code that we had developed that would ask for a reason that a user is logging into a Server / PC and it would record the Date, Time, UserName, ServerName (or PCName).

Follow the steps and you will have a great little Tray App to use with RDP via a regular RDP session or a Console Logon.

We have a public DNS 2000 Server that is a Primary DNS stand alone server, which is being replaced in the near future with a 2008 Server.

This document WSUS3.0 was created in 2006 by my friend Aidan Finn. http://www.aidanfinn.com/ I find it has been a very valuable resource for setting up and explaining WSUS to clients. It is a great reference tool and a must read for WSUS.
Thank you Aidan..!
