    I have it running on a DC [ 2003 server ] without a problem.
    But there again, its the only thing along with Wildfire running on this particular server....

    WSUS will chew up a lot of disk space. SQL Express will chew up a lot of memory. Other than that, it's ok.

    We had SUS then WSUS 2.0 on a DC without any problems, but we are moving away to its own dedicated box this summer.

    Got WSUS 3.0 [and formerly 2.0] on my Exchange / Server 2003 box - but it did work on my DC previously.

    [my DC is loaded enough as it is thought I'd move it to a less intensively used box]
