WSUS and NT Authority\Network Service

$

Hi there,

I'm getting the classic 7053 The WSUS administration console has encountered an unexpected error. This may be a transient error; try restarting the administration console. If this error persists, Try removing the persisted preferences for the console by deleting the wsus file under %appdata%\Microsoft\MMC\.

...error message. I understand from reading the documentation that the fix is to do this:

The NT Authority\Network Service account must have Full Control permission for the following folders so that the WSUS Administration snap-in displays correctly:

  • %windir%\Microsoft .NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files

  • %windir%\Temp

However when I try and add the "NT Authority\Network Service" to those folders, and click check names I get this message:

The following object is not from a domain listed in the Select Location dialog box, and is therefore not valid: NT Authority\Network Service

 

I'm using a Server 2008 R2 box which is a domain controller also.

 

How do I resolve this?

Thanks in advance.
