Hi
Check the following 2 registry values. If one or both does not exist,
create them.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion
\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update]
"ConfigVer" = REG_DWORD: 0x00000001 (1)
"SusServerVersion" = REG_DWORD: 0x00000001 (1)
If those values 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:
