Need to get WSUS working again after changing server config

At the beginning of last year we installed WSUS and got it working on
our only Windows server, just a member of a Samba domain.

We have set up this server as a DC of a new domain. We removed the
server from the old domain, changed the server's name, and then
promoted it to be the first domain controller in a new domain. Another
DC was then added to the domain.

Since making the first server a DC, I have had a lot of difficulty
getting into the configuration website for WSUS. I have managed to do
so once, but parts of the web page wouldn't initialise and threw some
error messages. When I tried to log in again later on, I couldn't get
in at all.

According to the Inetmgr running on that server, the site still exists
with the same access permissions as before. I am connecting to the site
as the same user as before, although with a different SID, but my user
account is a member of the Domain Administrators for that domain.

How do I get the web site working again? Is there anything else I need
to do on the server so that clients can find the WSUS site?

Perhaps try the WSUS Newsgroup
