Microsoft recently released KB2524478 (The network location profile changes from "Domain" to "Public" in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2) to WSUS. Neither of my two WSUS instances detects any of my Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 systems as needing the update, though (status = Not Applicable). Everything looks good in WSUS (the update is not declined); I've verified that the files in the KB are newer versions than the ones my servers; and I successfully downloaded the update from the Microsoft Download Center and manually installed it (no errors or other statements that it wasn't applicable). There are no special requirements listed in the KB article, so I can't figure out why WSUS thinks my servers don't need the update. Is there something I'm missing?
Below is 30 minutes worth of output from WindowsUpdate.log after stopping and restarting the Windows Update agent service on one of my servers and then doing a wuauclt /resetauthorization /detectnow. Looks normal to me.
