Hello John,
Which GPO do you talk about to solve your problem?

After changing the settings in group policy (I set them back to the
default of 'Not Configured'), restart the Automatic Updates Service
(Start > Run > services.msc <Enter> to bring up the services list).
After restarting the Automatic Updates service, the selected choice
should no longer be grayed out in Control Panel > Automatic Updates.

Hi, Meinolf,
Thank you very much for your response.
As you suggested, i checked computer configuration/administrative
templates and user configuration/administrative templates and
wuau.adm is added in both templates. I further looked into computer
configuration/administrative templates/Windows Components/windows
update and User Configuration/administrative templates/Windows
Components/Windows Update, all are showing not configured. I also
checked with gpresult /v, and i found nothing. It shows N/A under
adminstrative templates at both places. only default domain
controller policy is applied to the Domain Controller OU.
Is there anything I can do further? I assume i should not remove the
wuau.adm from the templates, right? The default domain policy is
"blocked inheritance" at the domain controller OU.
Thank you for your time and suggestion.

Hello John,
Check in the computer configuration/administrative templates and
also user configuration/administrative templates if the wuau.adm is
added, rightclick administrative templates, choose add/remove and
look for it. And i would still chekc with gpresult on a dc to check
for an update policy, run it with the verbose switch gpresult /v
and check again.

Yes, we are using WSUS. But none of the domain controllers are
included in the computer groups. And It was working pretty well
untill recently I saw DC automatically downloading and installing
windows updates.
It is really weird.
Do you think WSUS could be the reason?
Thank you for your response.

Hi, Everyone,
There is a weird thing happened to all the domain controller
computers (all Windows server 2003 std) in our company. I have
not
noticed when exactly this started. It seems that the Automatic
Updates options at our domain controllers are grey out. I used to
check "Notify me but don't automatically download or install
them"
because i don't feel comfortable if i just let the updates
automatically install to the domain controllers. But recently i
noticed the all domain controllers just do the automatic updates
and I am not able to change this settings because all the options
at
Automatic Updates (from Control Panel) are grey out.
I checked the default domain group policy, all shows not
cofigured for the windows updates. No other group policy linked
to the domain controller OU. It seems this started to happen when
I load some Windows critical updates to the servers couple of
months ago.
Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this or at leasts point me
to the correct direction to check?
Thank you very much for any help from you guys.
John
