SUS Client access

[Guest]

Hi,

I deploy the SUS server for testing. And configured the client to point to
the SUS Server for the updates. But my client doesn't seems to download the
update file from the server.

When I checked the Windows Update log file, this is what I get :
"2005-03-07 09:19:38 01:19:38 Success IUENGINE Starting

Is it there is some settings that I did not configure that preventing the
client from downloading the updates from server?

Did you approve an update that the client requires?

/neo

ps - the log you posted doesn't show any problems. Just that it was
successful in pulling the catalog. This log will not show downloads in
progress. http://www.susserver.com/FAQs/FAQ-InterpretingAUStateValues.asp
has a good way of interpreting the AUState registry value to see if AU/BITS
is working on a task.

Neo,

Yah, I have approved all the updates.
But seems like the client didnt download any updates yet.
what could be the possible config error?

The log you posted showed that it pulled the catalog w/out any issues. When
you took a look at the link to interpret the AUState value in the registry,
what value is the client sitting at?

From the log above, does it shows that the client is downloading and
installing from SUS server?

Thanks........

Sure and if the sus server is named testsrv001, then I would answer yes the
client has been successfully redirected.
