Windows Updates - WSUS
We have started using WSUS to get updates for all the windows servers and
clients on our network. We have a WSUS server V2 happily getting updates from a parent server, the client WSUS settings(both server and XP) are are configured in an OU policy. We have a problem with the XP clients not reporting their status in the WSUS web browser - our servers do show which updates are required. All the settings in the user and computer templates appear ok. We have the firewall service running but have switched the firewall off on our test machine - still no status report. The update service and BITS service are running Does anyone know of any policy settings that might be preventing the XP clients reflecting their status. Tks Ed

Windows Updates - WSUS
Nass
Thank you for response and the link to the to the discussions group.. I did check the time on the client machine I was working on - I ran "net time /domain:domain.com /set" - but it didn't help. I have left the problem at work for the night and will follow up your suggestion tomorrow. Ed "nass" wrote in message ...

Windows Updates - WSUS resolution 0x80248008 error
Here with our resolution
After reading the logs there were 0x80248008 errors being reported. They all pointed at IIS issues. Our problem was resolved by starting the default Pool service in the Application Pools directory. All our xp and w2003 clients are picking up their updates. Tks Ed "eddie" wrote in message ... We have started using WSUS to get updates for all the windows servers and clients on our network.
