Computers requesting nonexistent computer groups Sol Roberts-Lieb 6/21/2007 2:52:00 PM Hello, I have recently installed WSUS 3.0 in a very distributed university environment and selected use GPO/Local security policy for group targeting. On the main WSUS page I get a message that states:" Computers have requested the following nonexistent computer groups: x,x,x,x,. Is there a way to determine which computers are requesting those groups? I would like to find that out so i can talk to the admins of those machines an have them change their group policy or find out if they truly need a new group.

The easiest way to find out??? == Create the groups and see what computers are populated in them! :-) Fix the policy (if/as needed) and then delete the unneeded groups. -- Lawrence Garvin, M.S., MCTS, MCP Independent WSUS Evangelist MVP-Software Distribution (2005-2007) https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile=30E00990-8F1D-4774-BD62-D095EB07B36E Everything you need for WSUS is at http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver/en/technologies/featured/wsus/default.mspx And, almost everything else is at http://wsusinfo.onsitechsolutions.com .....
