Hi.

I use WSUS just to monitor my Windows Server uptades status.
But, recently, I have some servers that have been updated without aproving
any of updates detected by WSUS server.

In event viewer I saw something with WinHTTP Web Proxy Auto-Discovery
Service. Maybe it's detecting a transparent proxy on my network and making
automatic updates. How can I discover from what proxy server was it updated?

All my Proxy Servers are Novell and require web authentication.

Thankyou in advance.

Read c:\windows\WindowsUpdate.log

There are 10 type of people, those that understand binary and those that don't.

Thankyou for answering.

I have alreayd read it.
It doesn't tell me what proxy server used to download the update.

Mine says
"2008-07-18 03:12:51:969 904 144 Agent * Access type: No
proxy"

I don't have access to my work system (where there is a proxy) from here. From
memory it reports the name of the proxy.
