I have forgotten the command to run in terminal to point a computer to a
different software update server.



thanks richard

What it currently is:



defaults read /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist


Set it to something new:



sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL http://updates.updateserver.com:8088/index.sucatalog


Set it back to Apple:



sudo defaults delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL
