WSUS when offsite

[JScott]

Hi,

We are looking at setting up a WSUS server for some staff laptops. At present our gpo just points windows update to Microsoft but we would like to take some control over this and get some reports etc.

If I point the laptops at our internal wsus server on our domain can I set a second wsus server (Microsoft) when users are at home during the holidays etc?

as far as im aware no but you can set up direct access or a vpn such that they can download updates from your servers even when at home
