You can set group policy to force the computer to get those updates. &nbsp;It is in the GPO Computers under windows settings. &nbsp;That will force the computer to look at your WSUS for updates. &nbsp;You can then set deadlines for the updates to require them to be install by certain times. &nbsp;<br />

Is there a command to run on the computer (or a way from the WSUS Server) to force the updates to install on the computer?

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
