How do you update your server when its not connected to the internet?

This is actually a Windows Update question.
My OS is Windows Server 2008 Standard, Service Pack 2.  It is a stand alone system.
Crazy, I know, but I want to keep my server updated with the latest security patches, Software Patches, etc., even though it will soon not be connected to the internet.  Right now it is and I am making certain it's completely updated prior to removing
its connection.
How would I do that?  I realize that I will have to do what "Window's Update" does, but do it manually.
Please help! I'm new to servers and I will need this to be very much a step by step. Don't be surprised at to what I don't know at this point.  I am learning though!
Thanks in advance.  Any and all help will be very much appreciated.

Hi TimothyJohn,
You either,
- Setup a disconnected Wsus in the same LAN than your server. See Wsus documentation to see how to do that and how to update a disconnected Wsus.
- Use a third party tool like "Wsus Offline" :

  • HT204409 how can i locate my mini ipad even when its not connected to the internet

    how can i locate my mini ipad even when its not connected to the internet

    Is it lost or stolen?
    Apple (and no one else) can not assist (with serial number or iCloud) in finding a lost or stolen iPad.
    Report to police along with serial number. Change all your passwords.

    This is the same thing:
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    For how to restore:

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
    Just what do you not understand?

  • Halfway through the OS X Yosemite update it says I am not connected to the internet (when I know I am because I can search through the app store). How can I fix this? I cannot get on Safari because it requires an update to Mac OS X 10.9 or later.

    Just to be clear. You have downloaded the Yosemite installer. However you say while it's updating you get the error you are not online. This is confusing since you shouldn't be able to use your computer in the process of updating.
    Exactly where do you see you need to 10.9 to get on Safari?

  • What do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet

    what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network

    My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
    You may need to go back and start over.  Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router.

    Boy sure what you are doing but the current iOS level is 7.1 not 7.0.4.
    You cannot update to 7.0.4.

  • My printer is saying that its not connected to the internet How do i fix this

    My printer is actting funny...Yesterday i printed my son a picture off the apps on the printer but now its saying that its not connected to the internet but it was just working fine yesterday i have a hp officejet 6500A Any help would be greatly appriciated

    hello javy,
    first i would like to ask does this happen with all apps on the printer or just the one apps you used previously ?
    Also i would suggest Resetting the router that the printer is connected to and Also Power cycle the printer,
    In order you would go to the Printer and turn it off, and then turn the power of the router off,, wait about 15-20 seconds and then turn the Router back on, Wait for all the lights to come back on and then what you would want to do is turn the printer back on,, basically what this does  is refresh the connection from the printer to the router itself
    I am an HP employee.

    If you are the only user on your computer you probably don't have multiple user accounts set up and can disregard that.  If you are using iTunes 11 go to View>Show Sidebar.  Now see if your iPad appears under Devices on the left side when you connect it.  If it does, click on the name of your iPad on the left side and your iTunes sync settings options will appear in folders with tabbed headings to the right.
    If it doesn't appear on the left side, follow the troubleshooting steps shown in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538.

  • I can't download the current update, message says I am not connected to the internet although I am.

    I can't download the current update, message says I am not connected to the internet although I am.

    Assuming that you're not in a country that restricts or censors internet access, or connected to a LAN that does so (i.e. some dormatory and office systems):
    1. Reset the phone (no data loss): Press both the home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.
    2. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    3. Disable WiFi and update using cell data network.
