Hi ;

i found the following error on my event viewer . I tried to search on Google
to find some solution but no luck. I need some expert advice , if you can put
me in right direction that will be great.

Many client computers have not reported back to the server in the last 30
days. 15 have been detected so far.

WSUS is not picking up workstations.

Are they turned off? Over VPNs?

Hello Mahmut,

Thanks for your post and others' input.

Is the Event ID 13032 that you received in Application log? If so, you may refer to the below steps to check related configurations(please backup the IIS database first before
you make below changes):

1- Gave Full Control to NetworkService in:
1a.<> C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG
1b.<> C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application Data\Microsoft\CLR Security

3- Change password of IUSR user

4-Remove Integrated Windows Authentication in the following WSUS Sub-sites in IIS console
4a.<> to do that click start --> run and type inetmgr and the console of IIS will open, navigate to the WSUS Administration web site
4b.<> Expand WSUS Administration
4c.<> Right click on ClientWebService and them properties
4d.<> Click on Directory Security TAB
4e.<> Click on Edit button from the Authentication and Access control
4f.<> Set the password you've changed on step 3
4g.<> remove Integrated Windows authentication
4h.<> click OK twice

5- Repeat the steps 4c to 4h to the following web sites
- Content
- DSSAuthWebService
- Inventory
- ReportingWebService
- SelfUpdate
- ServerSyncWebService
- SimpleauthWebService

6- Run the comand "IISReset /noforce"

7-check if The WSUS clients start to synchronize with SBS Server and report normally now.

Hope this helps.
