Okay guys and gals I am at a loss.
I have a WSUS SP2 running on w2k3 system that has ceased to do anything
meaningful. All of the clients are reporting in the WSUS admin console as
not being able to be contacted in X days. I have gone through every
conceivable thing I can find on technet and still it does nothing.
I’ve even reinstalled WSUS to no avail. I’ve tried things on the client,
done the browse to server http path, checked the registry, check policies,
ping server telnet server you name it. Nothing. It just mocks me.
what if you set up a fresh client machine or vm and point it to it, does
it register or talk to it at all?
just wondering if a recent update on all your machines might have
clobbered the config, or otherwise made your machines not talk to an
(admittedly fairly old) server?
failing that a nice solution might be to implement ZPM instead of WSUS?
