Windows Update server

Hello,

Is anyone currently able to synchronize their WUS server ?

I have been trying since this morning but it keeps failing telling me
that the Windows update server is not reachable.

When I browse to the windowsupdate.microsoft.com though I can do a
manual update.

Here's the error I get from WUS
--------------------------
WebException: The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found.

System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtoc ol.ReadResponse(SoapClientMessage
message, WebResponse response, Stream responseStream, Boolean asyncCall)

methodName, Object[] parameters)

Thanks

Try this reported fix: Using Internet Explorer, visit V6 of Windows Update. This will get all
your W U controls updated to V6.
