I am implementing a SUS Server. I was wondering when I do
this will the Automatic updates be diabled in the control
panel or is there a setting in Group Policy I need to
change.

Thanks

Hi Michael

You actually configure the automatic updates to point at your SUS server.
This can be done via group policy under

Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components ->
Windows Update.

Kind regards

Please note you'll need to strip ".online" from my email address to email
me; I'll post a response back to the group.

I was wondering if there is a way of stopping people doing
manual updates, even if the Automatic Updates is pointing
to the server

You can do that via a GPO.
User Config/Admin Templates/Windows Components/Windows Update/Remove access
to use Windows Update features. Set to Enabled

Thais will stop the user using Windows Update but will not prevent your
Automatic Updates from working.
