SUS installation - initial mirror question

Hi

SBS2000 SP4, SUS SP1

I am running SUS on my server. I'd like to roll it out to my end users &
many of them including myself, use a 56k modem for Internet access. This
makes the initial SUS mirror take about 3 days. (In my rural location, a 56k
modem runs at 28k!)

Is there a way that I can upload the initial CAB files by CD? I can see the
\sus\content\cabs directory but there are also other directories which may
include details which should also be copied.

Regards
Nick

Just copy the files over & resync, should be fine.

Thanks Mal

Which files? Just the CABs?
