I'm trying to build up a test network using virtual machines, here's my configuration:
HOST1: Used only to run VMWare Workstation for VM1, VM2 and VM3
VM1: Windows Server 2008, Domain Controller, WSUS Server
VM2: Windows Server 2008 clone of VM1 before installing Domain Controller and WSUS roles
VM3: Windows Server 2008 clone of VM2
HOST2: Used only to run VMWare Workstation for VM4 and VM5
VM4: Windows 7
VM5: Windows 7, clone of VM4
All VM are in the same domain, IP configured statically and configured to manually check for updates.
Here's the problem:
I run Windows Update on VM1 and I can see VM1 computer name in All Computers in WSUS gui.
I run Windows Update on VM2 and in All Computer in WSUS gui VM1 disappear and VM2 comes visible.
I run Windows Update on VM3 and VM2 disappear replaced by VM3
I run Windows Update on VM4 and VM4 appear in All Computer (VM3 still present)
I run Windows Update on VM5 and VM4 disappear replaced by VM5
I've read somewhere that SID could be the problem, I used NewSID tool but behaviour didn't change, there are some other tricks to play after renewing SID for all VMs?
Thanks for replies...
