Has anyone tried copying the data from one SU server to another while keeping both functional?
Here’s the scenario that I need to address in the near future:
a) an XServe G4 that is Internet accessible running OSXS 10.4.x with SU enabled and pulling down updates from Apple
b) an XServe G4 that is NOT Internet accessible running OSXS 10.4.x with SU enabled to update Macs on an isolated Intranet…and no, I cannot connect the two!
Is there an easy way to periodically copy the files to CD/DVD and move them over to the isolated system? Do you forsee any issues with doing so? Any specific files that I should make sure to grab and/or tweak?
We currently follow a procedure similar to this for our Windows SUS updates, only MS provides for a mechanism to do so whereas this will be a roll-your-own solution.
Any constructive inputs would be appreciated…thanks!
