Hello forum, I am posting this after going through few links on WSUS troubleshooting and not being able to fix the problem. What's happening is that my WSUS server is getting updates from Microsoft and the connectivity from client servers to WSUS is tested OK but I can't see that clients servers seeing those updates. I force client servers by running following script but still the client servers will not see updates on WSUS.
net stop wuauserv
REG DELETE "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update" /v LastWaitTimeout /f
REG DELETE "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update" /v DetectionStartTime /f
Reg Delete "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update" /v NextDetectionTime /f
net start wuauserv
wuauclt /detectnow
The updates have not been applied for past few months and so servers reporting up to date status is bogus. What can I do to detect and fix WSUS? To me it appears to be issue with WSUS but how can I be sure that it is not client side problem? I have already followed http://blogs.technet.com/b/sus/archive/2009/11/17/tips-for-troubleshooting-wsus-agents-that-are-not-reporting-to-the-wsus-server.aspx. Please help.
