Thanks Anyweb - but please again ..... did you work with this role before?

Thanks

Hi I use WOL for several reasons, the most useful being that I wake all my desktops shortly after the monthly updates are released and get them to run wuauclt at 0330 so as all the updates are installed by the time the users log on in the morning. Saves my ears from all the moaning about updates causing the system to slow down.
