For running Software Update Server (SUS), is there a way to set up our master OD server pull down all Apple Software Updates, and have all our replica servers pull from the primary?

	master <-- pulls from Apple
	replica <-- pulls from master
	replica <-- pulls from master
	replica <-- pulls from master

On Leopard you can by editing the /etc/swupd/swupd.plist file. Look for the key "metaindexURL" - which by default points to swscan.apple.com.


You can change this to point to your upstream SUS and it should be good to go.

Hi Josh,

Thanks for the info. I checked the /etc/swupd/swupd.plist file and didn't see that key. Here's what the file contains:

=====================================================
$ cat /etc/swupd/swupd.plist
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd ">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>autoEnable</key>
<string>0</string>
<key>autoMirror</key>
<string>1</string>
<key>limitBandwidth</key>
<string>1</string>
<key>portToUse</key>
<string>8088</string>
<key>valueBandwidth</key>
<string>100</string>
</dict>
</plist>
=====================================================


Thanks again,
Don
