I have been working on this project for weeks and I can not get SUS to work!
I am posting my registry keys as they are now. Can you please look at these
and tell me if I am doing something wrong. I am also including the script you
had posted on your site that I used to force the updates from the client to
the server.
Thanks,
Rich Delaney

My Registry keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

   Microsoft

     WindowsUpdate
WUServer REG_SZ

This is the modified script I obtained from your site:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate]
"WUServer"="http://UPDATER"
"WUStatusServer"="http://UPDATER"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto
Update]
"NoAutoUpdate"=dword:00000000
"AUOptions"=dword:00000004
"NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers"=dword:00000001
"RescheduleWaitTime"=dword:00000001
"ScheduleInstallDay"=dword:00000000
"ScheduleInstallTime"=dword:00000011
"UseWUServer"=dword:00000001
"LastWaitTimeout"=-
"DetectionStartTime"=-

And the batch file:

@echo off
Net Stop "wuauserv"
regedit.exe /s C:\SUS.reg(Location of REG file)
Net Start "wuauserv"
