1318180	2012-12-13 22:27:00	Have something going on here which I can't get to the cause of. Firstly, an SBS2011 server won't update. If I go to Control Panel/Windows Update/settings it shows me that it's being managed by GPO, which is fine. If I manually try to update it asks for proxy authentication, which it shouldn't. If I go to WSUS admin, the server itself doesn't appear in the list of servers, or anywhere in WSUS (including Unassigned). Shouldn't the server itself appear here? I cannot for hte life of me recall seeing or not seeing it in WSUS. Have tried usual wuauclt.exe /resetauthorization /detectnow but with no success. If I run rsop.msc then the correct policies and settings are being applied, including the update location which is http://servername:8530 IDeas? I am certain there's a simple answer but I just can't see it.	FAB (6923)

As that will break it on SBS2011. You can only manage WSUS on SBS2011 via the console - Security - Updates tab.	CYaBro (73)
