Good Morning,
First, a little background into software and setup.
SERVER: Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard with the BDC role and WSUS 3.2.7600.226 Installed. Windows 2003 Domain, using Group Policy to push out a "WSUS Computers Policy" with the correct WSUS settings.
WORKSTATION: Windows XP Pro SP3, with latest updates, that resides in the "WSUS Computers" OU, using "WSUS Computer Policy". Firewall Disabled, Antivirus Removed for testing purposes.
This has been somewhat frustrating for me. We have recently purchased GFI MAX Remote Management and would like to use this to keep track and authorize windows updates, not to mention numerous other features. I would like to move away from WSUS. WSUS is currently pushing out updates to my workstations and does not have a problem doing so, I am just looking for a more centralized solution for pushing updates and patches to not only Windows, but to 3rd party applications without breaking the bank.
Now, the problem I am having is that when I remove the test computer from the "WSUS Computers" OU and place it in "Computers" OU to just pull the Default Domain Policy, I am not able to run windows updates from the default microsoft updates site. In my Default Domain Policy I do not have Windows Updates configured, they are set to the default "Not Configured" option. I have tried creating a test policy to see if I just need to push a clean policy and still unable to receive updates. I can provide logs if need be, the error I get when trying to run windows updates after removing the computer from the OU is:
"Error number: 0x80190193"
Any help would be greatly apprciated. Thank You in advance.
Jon
