wsus question

[msadexchman]

I can't seem to find a Windows 2003 newsgroup so I'm using this one.

I just downloaded and installed the beta 2 of WSUS 3.0 and had a quick
question. I accepted all of the defaults during the installation which
included using the default website instead of a new website. My problem now
is that even from the local box, when I type in http://localhost it's coming
up as "under construction". If I put in http://localhost/wsusadmin I'm
getting "page cannot be found". I wanted to test setting up a GPO and
linking it to an OU so that we can test having servers pull from this WSUS
server but during the GPO creation, you must enter the URL of the WSUS
server.

Is there anything else I have to set up to get the URL working correctly?

Many thanks

Hi, most likely you need a port number, open your IIS and check the port
number for that web/page, it could be you use the ssh option, on either case
you need the correct port number; then use the port on the address:
http://localhost:port#
http://localhost:port#/wsusadmin
