    Wow, I hate to say this but it is going to be a very broad question.  I have been asked to get SCCM working in our environment this week, particularly the integration with WSUS and SCCM.  Keep in mind that I have never messed with SCCM before and it has been probably 6-7 years since I have touched SMS, I know they are pretty much the same thing though, so there may be some hand holding needed.

    What do I need to do to get the clients properly configured to accept the client agents, I tried to deploy clients to a test machine and got no where.  I manually installed the client on one machine haven't done a ton of testing on that except for the remote control seems to be disabled even though I have enabled in every place I know how.

    Do you know of any checklists to do to preparation for the clients? WMI is it needed or not, if so what is the prep?  Permissions on what and where?  Global Policy?

    See the ConfigMgr docs ("Software Updates in Configuration Manager"): http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb680701.aspx
    Software updates in ConfigMgr is a completely new topic compared to SMS. I suggest that you start in a testlab first!

    Basically: install a WSUS server, configure a software update point, sync with MS, enable the software updates client agent, create a deployment (update list, deployment package etc), distribute the sources to DPs.
