Hi
This *might* be your issue, from a previous post in the
microsoft.public.softwareupdatesvcs newsgroup:
From:
("Chris Ard [MSFT]")
Date: Tue, 31 Aug 2004 20:41:04 GMT
Subject: RE: Clients have two log files "Windows Update.log" & "Windowsupda
Message-ID: <>
Newsgroups: microsoft.public.softwareupdatesvcs

Check the following registry key. If it does not exist, create it.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\WindowsUpdate\
Auto Update]
"SusServerVersion" = REG_DWORD: 0x00000001 (1)
If this key does not exist or is not set to 1, then the v5 client appears
to use Windowsupdate instead of SUS

Fyi, there is a separate newsgroup for SUS:
microsoft.public.softwareupdatesvcs
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...wareupdatesvcs
URL to the group softwareupdatesvcs for those who uses the Web
interface to access the newsgroups:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserv...wareupdatesvcs
A Web site about SUS with a FAQ and a SUS forum:
