SUS Update Issues

[Jason]

All,

I have a SUS Server up and running, it has sync'd and now
I am pointing clients to it manually, using the guidance
in the deployment guide by manually altering (adding)
registry keys.

After I alter the keys, I start/stop the automatic updates
service and/or restart the machine. For some reason the
system does not go to my SUS Server.

Hints? War stories? Thanks.

I know in my case I had to wait up to 24 hours for the
client to check-in with the server.

For some reason the system does not go to my SUS Server.<
Do you mean after you run Windows Update? Keep in mind, Windows update will
alwasy go to Microsoft. The client will automatically check the SUS server
for updates at a random time. You have no control over this time but you do
have control over when the updates are applied.

Hope this helps,

Bob
