Yes I specified the update server. &nbsp;I am able to view them, but only if I have wsus extension from a third party that I'm currently using as a trial. &nbsp;Is there a way to view the updates without having to purchase another piece of software.

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).
