This issue is related to Windows Update forcing a restart when the last session logs off Server 2003. Updates have been installed and a restart is pending. Obviously this is problematic if the last session is logged off during the day. The server is subject to a network wide GPO. Is there any way to prevent this behaviour?
I have read many articles on the matter, but most suggest modifying a setting that is not available i.e. 'No auto-restart for scheduled Automatic Updates installations'. The setting I have is: 'No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled Automatic Updates installations', which is obviously not what I'm looking for.
