It's normally set as a managed pref through WGM in the form:

But you can also do it via terminal:
defaults write com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL "http://
yourserverfqdn:8088/index.sucatalog"
In my experience, that will only set it for the user that runs the
'defaults' command. To set it for all users:
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate
CatalogURL "http://server:8088/";
To set it for the root user, which will enable you to use the
softwareupdate command-line tool (which must be run as root):
sudo defaults write com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL "http://
server:8088/"
Putting the "index.sucatalog" on the end is completely unnecessary.
