I've installed WSUS 3.0 and I'm havying trouble getting it to reconize any of the computers in my OU for testing. Here's what've done: I cretaed a new OU, moved a computer into the OU. Created a Group Policy where I specified the Intranet server http://servername in both the set the intranet update service for detecting updates and set the intranet statistics server and configured automatic updates auto download and scheduled the install for sunday at 3:00 AM. Also to note I installed the administrative website on port 8530 according to IIS. Does this port need to be added in the group policy object where I specify the URL of the server? I forced…

I need a solution for WSUS 3.0 managed machines to wake computers when they need updates and power them off when complete. This doesn't seem like a new concept but I have not been able to find any good information to accomplish this.

by Guest Gareth- 4 replies
- 387 views
Hi folks, Apologies if this question is not in the right section for WSUS, if not please could you point me in the right direction for posting such queries. I've just installed WSUS 3.0 into our test lab and find myself wondering as to whether a number of features exist within WSUS. These are:- Audit capability - Can you tell who (user account) and when a particular update or updates were approved ? Note taking capability - Is it possible to make a note as to why a particular update was approved or declined ? Security - Is it possible to secure WSUS in order that only certain users can approve updates for certain groups ? Thanks in advance for …

WSUS and deploying IE7 (genuine advantage??)
by Guest Freaky- 0 replies
- 188 views
Hey there, until several months ago IE7 was automatically deployed through WSUS. Appearantly this is no longer the case. Searched for recently installed computers in WSUS and they all report the 'Not Applicable' (freely translated) status on the update. These are XP machines, so I don't see how they would not be applicable. My guess would be it has something to do with Windows Genuine Advantage. WGA also seems to prevent me from pushing WindowsDefender to the clients. Is there anyways I can resolve these issues? Probably would need to push the WGA to the clients, which I would suspect WSUS to do, but can't find it. TIA & Kind regards

WSUS and Internet Explorer
by Guest Keith Wilcox- 1 reply
- 300 views
Hi, Is there any way of using Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) to ensure that client PCs have a minimum install of Internet Explorer, such as 5.50.4134.0600? Several PCs on my network have an older version of IE than this, and it's starting to cause problems... Alternatively, is there any way of downloading an IE setup file onto my server, so that I can update IE on these PCs over the network, and without having to connect these PCs to the internet? (This will also cause problems...) Whilst investigating this problem, I have also discovered that some PCs on the network aren't listed in WSUS - and presumably aren't getting Windows Updates. Doe…

On a 100 device NT4 domain - with a 2003 based WSUS 2 server talking to W2K clients. A few workstations just decided not to talk to the server any more. Their WSUS log has an entry saying 2008-04-29 14:13:34:226 1200 6e4 Misc WARNING: Error: 0x80092026 when verifying trust for C:\WINNT\SoftwareDistribution\SelfUpdate\Default\wuident.cab From that point on, even if I re-install the WSUS client it registeres with the server but then will not talk to it to find out what updates it needs. This affects approx 10% of my workstations, each at slightly different update stages, and I am at a loss on how to get these talking again. 50% plus of my devices hav…

WSUS configuration

Hi, I am working with WSUS, and from what I understand a group of computers that are linked to a WSUS server must either download from MS or from WSUS. I am trying to figure the best way when I have two group of computers and I want one group to download updates from WSUS while another download from MS. Will I need two seperate WSUS server to accomplish this? If so does this have to be two physical boxes? Thanks.

WSUS Duplicate Issue
by Guest admintgal- 0 replies
- 219 views
I'm not sure if there are any WSUS experts out there, but I'll give it a shot. We are running WSUS 2.0 and we are running into a situation where duplicate machines are being created the WSUS admin consoles. I've been consistently reading that this is due to the susclientID registry key and imaging. I guess I just don't understand how this is issued or whatever, but could someone explain to me the process of communication between a client and WSUS and how this ID is issued, and how duplicates could possibly occur? Thanks in advance.

WSUS Question

Hello, We are trying to install and configure WSUS on a server that has SQL Server on it. We do not want to use the SQL server instance so we wanted to install MSDE for the WSUS. We are receiving an error when we try to install MSDE: A strong SA password is required for security reasons. Please use SAPWD switch to supply the same. Is this a conflict between SQL Server and the MSDE on the box? Can they both be on there? Thanks. Kevin
