I am running WSUS on Server 2008 R2 x64. I have Windows XP, Vista, and 7 clients connecting to it without any problems. I recently installed Windows 8 Pro from my TechNet subscription on one of our workstations and I'm getting an error 800B0001 when I try to run Windows Update. I have tried the fix found athttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/2720211 already with no luck. When I'm adding a new system to our network, I use a registry entry to enter the settings and another one to remove them when I'm finished (I have a computer repair shop so we see lots of computers come through).
Here's the registry key used to instruct the system to look to the WSUS server for updates:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate]
"WUServer"="http://192.168.5.23"
"WUStatusServer"="http://192.168.5.23"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]
"UseWUServer"=dword:00000001
"IncludeRecommendedUpdates"=dword:00000001
"NoAutoUpdate"=dword:00000000
"AUOptions"=dword:00000002
"ScheduledInstallDay"=dword:00000000
"ScheduledInstallTime"=dword:00000010
Any ideas? Thanks!
