Registry settings for different domain clients

$

0

Hello,

We have WSUS server and being used to deploy patches for set of machines to which WSUS server is joined to through GPO. We have one more set of machines in different domain in same forest\network but we cannot deploy GPO on that domain due to some restrictions.

In this scenario, does modifying the registry settings on client will work? or Is there any other alternative way to redirecting the client to our WSUS?

Appreciate any comments

Regards,

WSUS not pushing updates, also 2016 servers unable to manually update

$

So I'm currently trying to get my 2016 WSUS server to update manually, via "Start>Settings>Windows Update" I have gone through a plethora of google searches attempting to figure out why I cannot download updates. Currently the error I'm getting is this:

"There were problems installing some updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for more information, this may help:"

Then it gives me two of the updates I'm trying to install (which were approved via WSUS but not installing automatically or manually) and Error 0x80244019.

On top of that, ALL of my 2016 servers are not pulling updates from WSUS. All approved updates are showing "Install" under status and yet none of them are actually installing. I'm assuming it has something to do with the above. As I've tried manually updating some other test servers and get similar errors, but same end result of no updates.

Only thing that seemed to work on the test machines was to add the following to the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Update

DisableWindowsUpdateAccess

DoNotConnectToWindowsUpdateInternetLocations

Both keys set to 0 allowed me to manually download updates.

Any help would be appreciated and hopefully save my hair from being ripped out further.

Hello,

Although the original Windows server 2016 machine is updating fine, all clones fail.

We made sure to:

point to WSUS server in registry key

run these commands to

i.    wuauclt /detectnow
ii.    wuauclt /reportnow
iii.    wuauclt /resetauthorization

i.    net stop wuauserv
ii.    reg delete HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate /f /va
iii.    net start wuauserv

the machine appears in wsus just fine, but the error  :

"There were some problems installing updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help: (0x8024401c)"

keeps happening

I installed the latest cumulative update but it did not solve the problem,

renamed SoftwareDistribution and catroot2 folders but no luck

I changed the settings on the wsuspool (httplevel to tcplevel, limit to 0 aka no limit, queue to 25000 and such ) no luck either

What else can I try please?

Hi,

Can anyone help? Since 16th July 2018, my windows updates are no longer being installed on my Windows 2008 R2 server. This seems to correspond since KB890830 was installed in Jully, however the August KB890830 update did install. Screenshot below of updates which are failing. Any ideas how I resolve?

Updates failing to install are

KB4339093

KB4338818

KB4340556

KB4339093

Plus a whole host more.

Kind regards

Windows Server 2016 not honoring WSUS GPO setting

$
0
0

We have a 2016 WSUS server functioning well for all clients except some of our 2016 servers. We have GPO setup up to auto download and notify for install.

I have verified Group Policy is applying to these servers and validated the correct registry entries are present. If i run SCONFIG, I see option 5 set as Download only.

The issue is when I go into the windows update settings on the affected server(s). It shows the server has checked in but no updates are available. It also says updates will be downloaded and installed automatically. If I click Check for updates, it checks and automatically installs the updates then tells me it will reboot outside of active hours.

Some other 2016 servers in the same OU with the exact same policies work like they should. They download the updates automatically but tell me I need to install them.

I have done everything possible to try and resolve this issue from stopping the Windows update service, deleted all windows update registry entries, deleted the software distribution folder and rebooted

I have compared registry entries on good\bad servers and they are identical

I have removed and re-added them to the domain with no luck

There are no local group policies applied only domain level policies

This seems like a bug but I can't confirm it. Any thoughts?

If this is not a bug, is there a fix?

Your device is scheduled to restart outside of active hours

We have a 50/50 mix of Win7 Pro/Win10 Pro clients in our environment and are running WSUS 6.3.9600.18324 on Server 2012 R2. After updates have been pushed to clients the Win7 machines prompt the use to reboot their machine however the Win10 machines do not and instead the Windows Update screen advises "Your device is scheduled to restart outside of active hours."

How do I override this setting in the GPO? We need the Win10 machines to automatically prompt the user to restart similar to the Win7 clients.

Hi,

My WSUS is reporting that all my servers (2012, 2012 R2, 2016) do not need KB4476698. I have checked that at least 5 servers have the directory path that contains the vulnerable visual studio exe file. Nessus scan have confirmed the servers require that patch. 

Windows 2008 R2 SP1 64-BIT node not showing KB3177467 on the windows update

$

Hi All,

I have a few Windows 2008 R2 SP1 64-BIT nodes in my environment which are reporting to WSUS which is also running in the same OS. In the windowsupdate.log it seems all are reporting 2 missing patches. And all of them are only able to receive KB4471318 which keeps failing and understand that I would need to install KB3177467 as a prerequisite before KBB4471318 can be installed. 

It appears in the WSUS and have been approve to install, but end nodes is not displaying it on the Window update. How do I make it appear via windows update.

Thanks

Clients not detecting WSUS

Hello,

In my organization we started using wsus. The local environment was no problem and all the client computers connected and picking up updates with no problem, the location of the wsus is provided through a GPO. On a staging level (all vm's) the windows machines are not finding the wsus server. The GPO is applied on the machines and in rsop i can see that the right location is provided on the update rule. 

Until now only on VM has reported to the wsus. All the machines are running server 2016 or higher.

I'm a little bit stuck now. Anyone some advice where I can look?

Kind regards,

Rick Kuiper.

Windows 10 product available in the WSUS update product classification

Hi all !

I installed and configured a WSUS Service in my organization and it will be used to deploy all security and critical updates for all clients (users computers)

These pc clients are composed of Windows 7 and windows 10 product with little bit of everything (1703,1709,1803 versions.)

But I don't know what to choose from the list of windows 10 product in WSUS.
Knowing that I don't want to download unnecessary update to my organization and avoid overloading the wsus server.

Currently, I checked only Windows 7 and Windows 10...
Is it enough or I forget a lot of update ???

I looked the differences of each version listed but I do not quite understand what they mean

Many thanks for your help.

Hi all, 

We have a Server 2016 which has been installed Q4 2018 with all latest updates approved from WSUS. 

Now when a Nessus scan was run, it came back with a missing KB4343887 update. Now when I checked from Windows Catalog the update issuperseded byKB4471321 and that the KB is irreverent due to the latest cumulative update.  Nessus got back to us that we are still vulnerable and need to create a registry key to close the vulnerability like so:

This registry key is required to enable the fix for cve-2017-8529:

  SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_ENABLE_PRINT_INFO_DISCLOSURE_FIX\iexplore.exe "

Is this a false positive? or do I need to create the key?

1809 Machines Will Not Check With WSUS after Update

Greetings,

Doing some testing on our test environment with the 1809 update. After the update the systems will not check the WSUS server for updates but instead will try to reach the internet. This system is not internet connected so it fails. Here is the log from the last run. Can anyone tell me where to start looking? 

I have tried to stop the services and rename the SoftwareDistribution folder but that didn't help either.

Any ideas?

WSUS - how to remove wsus settings and restore windows update defaults

$
0

I have WSUS running on a Windows 2008r2 server.  We have a small windows network of about 50 workstations.  I am running out of disk space on the current WSUS server and I am considering getting rid of the WSUS and just let my clients update from Microsoft.  Bandwidth is not an issue any longer.  I know there are other reasons to use WSUS but I am not sure they are compelling enough to keep it.

I have done some research and have determined that I can change our GPO to set "Specify Intranet Microsoft update service location" to "disabled" and our clients will point to Microsoft for their updates.  Is this correct?  Am I leaving something out?

If I get rid of WSUS, how do I control when the clients update and how can I tell the client (by using registry edits or a GPO) to "Give me updates for other Microsoft products when i update windows"?  That is all I really care about.

In other words how can I have some "basic" control (if possible) over my clients when I remove WSUS?
