I have two Windows 2012 servers running WSUS 3.0 SP2. I've implemented SSL on port 8531.
I can connect to the WSUS console on both Server1 & Server2 from my laptop, no problem.
Server1 can connect to the WSUS console of Server 2 and vice versa.
What doesn't work on both Server1 and Server2 is connecting to it's own WSUS console. For example, I've logged on to Server1 with an account with administrator access, run WSUS console, attempted to connected toserver1.company.com:8531 and receive the error message:
Cannot connect to 'Server1.company.com'. Please makes sure the Post-Installation ask is completed successfully in that server. If it was, please verify if the server is using another port or different Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) setting.
First thought was client certificates (as I've also read on another post) but I don't believe that's the issue because Server1 can connect to Server2.
Strange. Well, at least it seems that way. Maybe I'm just missing something?!
Appreciate any assistance anyone can give.
Cheers,
