Download Software Updates Wizard from the Internet - does it use BITS to do this?

I have a Primary Site Server at my Datacenter and I setup a temporary DP on a test Win 7 system. I initially was having timeout issues trying to deploy software updates to a group of test systems for my pilot deployment to this remote location from the DP
located at the Datacenter. So I decided to setup a temporary DP on a Win 7 system to see if this will help resolve the timeout issues.
My question is, when I download patches to the package located on the remote Win 7 DP does it use BITS to do this? 
Exactly what is the process that occurs when this happens, or will the PatchDownloader.log file give the info I need? I have looked in the PatchDownloader.log file and nothing has appeared yet. 
Thanks

So it sounds like I do in fact need to create a separate package just for that remote Win 7 DP then. 
What I am trying to get at is this:
I have a very slow WAN link from the Datacenter to a remote site that I am running my second pilot deployment on (Pilot 2)
I have an existing package that I have been using for the last 4 months or so that I have been using for my first pilot deployment (Pilot 1)
I tried to deploy the software updates initially for Pilot 2 to my remote test systems, but they were timing out due to the constricted WAN bandwidth and the fact BITS traffic is being regulated with a packet shaper appliance device
Because of the timeout issues I was seeing in the WUAHandler.log and WindowsUpdate.log, I decided to first setup a simple Win 7 DP to see if this could resolve the timeout issues
I knew that the software updates that I wanted to deploy already existed in my "2014_Monthly_Patches-Datacenter" package, but I did not want to run the Distribute Content Wizard to deploy this entire package to my remote Win 7 DP across my very
slow WAN link and saturate the wire
So I re-downloaded the software updates again, but this time instead of having them download to the Package Source on my Primary Standalone Site server located in my Datacenter, I downloaded them to a new Package Source on the remote Win 7 DP instead and
I put them in a completely separate package named "2014_Monthly_Patches-RemoteSiteA"
What I want to know is if the steps I performed above necessary and accurate, because I do have such a slow WAN connection between the Datacenter and the remote site, or is there another way of doing this without creating the separate Package Source and
separate package on the remote DP?

    Apparently it's related to the Firefox plug in.
    This isn't exactly a solution but more of a way to avoid opening PDFs with Firefox's plug in.
    1. Highlight "Tools" from the Menu Bar in the top left of the screen (or click "Options" if using the Firefox Compact Menu)
    2. Select to "Options
    3. Select "Applications"
    4. Look for "Adobe Acrobat Document" under Content Type and to the right under Action select "Use Adobe Reader (default)" instead of the using Adobe Acrobat in Firefox
    5. Open a test PDF. It should open in it's own window now.
    Again, not a complete solution but something that'll at least let you scroll with PDFs open.

  • How do I download adobe captivate videos from the internet?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to figure out how to download a video from the internet that was made with adobe captivate 2.
    I've tried using videolan and some other downloaders but they don't seem to be working.
    I may be going about it wrong, does anyone have suggestions?
    I'd like to have them downloaded and saved to my computer so I don't have to access the internet.
    Thank you!

    Thank you for your help, your suggestion worked for the video! But, I found it doesn't work with all the videos on the site.
    For example, the download icon will not light for this video here: http://www.volume11.com/ddsgn150/weblessons/weekone/WeekOne_1b.htm
    Thanks!

  • Cannot download or save files from the internet

    I have the Satellite L675-S7115.  When I get any email with an attachment or go to the internet to download it will not allow me to download or save the file to the computer.  The message remains on the bottom of the screen until I log off the internet and return.  I can sometimes view the file on-line such as a word or excel doc. but can't download.  I'm using Kaspersky virus software.  The computer started doing this about 4 months ago and I've been able to use my desktop as a work around.  I haven't changed virus protection and I've gone to the control panel to see if the security was set low enough for me to get the downloads.  If anyone has any advise please help. I've looked at other posts with similar problems but haven't found an answer.    Thanks

  • An index of my desktop files appears in firefox. why is it there? does this mean my personal files are accessible from the internet? how can i make sure this goes away and stops?

    i am seeing and index of my personal files on firefox. what is this? why is it there? how can i make it go away? does this mean my desktop files are on the internet? can someone explain clearly and simply (i am not tech saavy at all) thank you

    This issue can be caused by an old bitmap version of the Helvetica or Geneva font or (bitmap) fonts that Firefox can't display in that size.
    Firefox can't display some old bitmap fonts in a larger size and displays gibberish instead.
    You can test that by zooming out (View > Zoom > Zoom Out, Ctrl -) to make the text smaller.
    Uninstall (remove) all variants of that not working font to make Firefox use another font or see if you can find a True type version that doesn't show the problem.
    There have also been fonts with a Chinese name reported that identify themselves as Helvetica, so check that as well.
    Use this test to see if the Helvetica font is causing it (Copy & Paste the code in the location bar and press Enter):
    <pre><nowiki>data:text/html,
    Helvetica<br><font face="Helvetica" size="25">abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ</font><br>
    Helvetica Neue<br><font face="Helvetica Neue" size="25">abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ</font>
    </nowiki></pre>
    You should reset the network.http prefs that show user set on the about:config page.<br />
    Not all websites support http pipelining and if they do not then you can have issues with images or other problems.

  • Latest software update is causing the dock process to use an abnormally high amount of system resources- what's going on?

    After I installed the latest software update (updates that prepare some apps to run on OSX Lion), I'm noticing that the dock process is using 100% of my CPU when idle. This is causing my battery life to be 30 min at best. What's going on?

    There is a conflict with Parallels and the latest update that causes this.  Update Parallels to the latest version and it will fix this.

  • The download Software Updates Wizard completed with errors - The SMS Provider reported an error

    I am trying to download the patches into a newly created deployment.  The patches come down ok and populate the folder, but I get this error.
    There are no red lines in the patchdownloader.log.
    Where would the SMS Provider error be logged?

    check the patchdownloader.log file - it can be a permission issue on the folder where you store the updates.

    in the iBook G4 forum and am very curious myself if this could be a problem with the update. If someone knows why this is happening, would you please help the poor guy with two dead iBooks?
    Thanks,

    I'm sorry, I didn't mean that the other member's question was solved, only my part in it. That must have been confusing. I should go back to mark it unsolved.
    I subscribe to the iBook G4 forum and when this question came up, I looked through other forums to try to find an answer for him/her. The Tiger forum seemed like the logical place to post the question. It looks like the right person came to the rescue! Thanks. Discussions members have helped me out by networking like this, so it's great to be able to return the many favors.
