Hello Community,

I have deployed Windows 2012 R2 WSUS in my organisation. I have no issues with Windows 7, 2008 R2 pointing to the WSUS server.

However, I am having issues pointing Windows 2003 R2 and Windows XP to the WSUS server.

On the Windows 2003 client, I have also ran wuauclt /detectnow and the GPO settings is set to:

In Windows 2008 R2, I know that I am getting updates from the WSUS because I can see the option

below (circled in red)

Questions:

1. In Windows 2003, how do I know that I am actually getting the updates from the WSUS and not from the internet? 

2. Are Windows 2003/XP clients compatible to pull updates from a Windows 2012 WSUS server?

3. If Windows 2003/XP clients are able to get updates from Windows 2012 WSUS server, how do I do it? Is there any 'interface' for me to use?
