Ok feeling real kind of dumb. Everytime I go to work on this something gets goobered up and I quit.
New day. I have a WSUS 2012 as my Upstream server and it updates from Microsoft. I have a test group associated with it. I have a GPO that has it as the update server and stat server. That part is good. Even approved and pushed out some updates this way. Now the funky part. Adding 2008 and 2003 replica servers at 24 branch (T1 connected) locations. I have 1 group per each location. (all the pc's and servers have an OU in AD for that location.) I have a GPO per OU that has the Replica server as the update server and the above WSUS 2012 as the Stat server. The pc's and servers in the OU are detected but do not report. So what the hell.... I have tested getting to the iuident.cab and wuident.cab at each OU with success. But no dice getting these pc's and servers in the WAN OU's to report back or fall into their correct group in WSUS. Just want to get this working so I can take it off my plate. Thanks for the immediate bashing and hassling and then the actual help later.
