AUSST Software selection

[LucasFitt]

I'm in the pricess of setting up an AUSST Server for my school (we were doing shared devices licences, which mean we could deploy from SCCM, but that's going away apparently), and I've just ticked over 24 hours into my first sync - I'm at item 94 of 706.

Based on these numbers, the sync is going to take a week!

According to the log, it seems to be downloading trial version of software, and mac versions, neither of which we need (just the current win10 versions is all we want/need)

Is there a way of selecting jsutt he most recent versions, full version, and/or windows versions of software for the AUSST sync?

You can define filters with AUSST which determine the versions or applications which are downloaded by the synchronisation utility; you can either do this from the command line with the "FilterProducts" option, or using an XML file referenced from the "FilterFilePath" option. This is discussed briefly in the main documentation at https://helpx.adobe.com/enterprise/package/help/update-server-setup-tool.html 
In addition, you will find some more specific examples of this in the following PDF: https://assets.adobe.com/public/aaa44df1-ccd2-4cff-6fd7-73f187e65312 (see section 2.3 for the configuration likely most relevant to your requirements)

Being able to select a subset of things to download has dramatically reduced the downloads - I'm still getting Mac versions - is there a way of not disabling those too?

Unfortunately there is no way to select whether Mac or Windows updates are downloaded with the current version of the Adobe Update Server Setup Tool.
