Status Reporting mwebb 5/29/2007 2:07:01 PM I have just installed WSUS 3.0. I only have 6 computers in my domain network and have had the network up with WSUS for almost 24 hours. Still none of the computers have reported their status. Is there a way to get this done in a reasonable amount of time or to force the reporting? --

That depends on what's wrong, and how long it takes to fix it. :-) Download and run the Client Diagnostic Tool on one of the clients and post the results. -- 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 .....

Re: Status Reporting mwebb 5/30/2007 12:40:01 AM where can I find the "Client Diagnostic Tool"? I looked at the WSUS website, downloads, searched and I could find anything. BTW, I ran "wuauclt.exe /detectnow" and all of the computers are listed in the WSUS screen but no luck in getting any status. I did not have this trouble with WSUS 2.0 on another domain. -- "Lawrence Garvin (MVP)" wrote: [Quoted Text] > > "mwebb" <mwebb[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message > news:16E12EB9-34B4-4D75-9F82-ACBD097BA6A8[ at ]microsoft.com... > >I have just installed WSUS 3.0.

Re: Status Reporting mwebb 5/30/2007 12:54:00 AM I found and ran the client diagnostic tool. I got a red message that stated "The requested URL does not exist on the server" When I installed WSUS 3.0 I used the default that placed the website on the default webserver.

Re: Status Reporting mwebb 5/31/2007 1:00:01 AM I can browse to the wuaucomp.cab file using IE.
