There is a registry setting you can set to make machines look at 
your box instead of the Windows Update servers... 

Key Name: 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate 

Value 0 
Name: WUServer 
Type: REG_SZ 
Data: http://secret.server:8530

Value 1 
Name: WUStatusServer 
Type: REG_SZ 
Data: http://secret.server:8530
