Hi,
I initially had an issue with duplicate SusClientI. I managed to get that resolved, however now that I have approved all updates, all clients are showing as "Up to date" when in the WSUS console states they are needing updates. I know for a fact that
WSUS is correct as these server's haven't been updated in 6+ months.
WSUS is a fresh install from about a week ago on Server 2008R2.
Fresh Windowsupdate.log from a client (The WSUS server itsself) after running wuauclt /resetauthorization /detectnow
