What does WSUS offer that will allow an inventory program (in my case,
Opsware's "Asset Tracking Edition" product, now owned by HP) to inventory
the patch status?
I'm asking since last time I looked I didn't see an API in WSUS that would
allow it to be used as a closed routine for a third-party product. As I
said in my posting, if the answer is "RTFM" please tell me what FM is
needed.
