We have two new HP ML370 G5 server. It works fine before install Windows 2008
SP2.

After install SP2, it cannot get Windows Update anymore. The error message
is 80072F78. I have google it without luck.

Any suggestions?

PA Bear, 2002? In particular the infracstucture deficit that is Windows
Update did capture our attention. Honestly, Symantec's update has been
upgraded to about 20mbps (Lan quality). It alarms me that proverbial system
central seems to be drifting from recline into decline. Enough bit-by-bit
poetry, Microsoft. 2009, NOT 1969! Trying to make what is very apparent, less
difficult to accept and confront.
