If your server has internet access just set up similar to any workstation - perhaps look at manual reboots.
If your server doesn't have internet access you can download patches from MS Catalog site if you know which ones you want...
http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Home.aspx
You can determine what is missing by running MS Baseline Security Adviser - available here...

Be sure to read the FAQ which explains how to ensure the tool reports against the latest available updates...

An alternative solution that is great for offline servers & makes use of MS Updates catalog is WSUS Oflline Update (I use this for offline Certificate Authorities etc)
