Software Update Server via Network Segments Problem

Not applicable

I'm having an issue with our Software Update Server config. We accidentally set our SUS up on a bunch of machine that shouldn't have it. We did this by assigning a software update server to a network segment. It then assigned this server to all the machines on that network segment. When I reverted and assigned "No Software Update Server" to the affected subnets, it did NOT revert the machines on that subnet to Apple.com. The only way I can get them to revert is to manually assign "SWU Server: None" on each individual computer.

We have a startup policy that sets the software update server at startup. I like this method and don't want to get rid of it.

But I feel there has got to be an automated way to reassign these computers back to Apple's Software Update Servers.

You can script this in your policy or target these machines, this will
point them back to Apple.
