The Child machine had a WSUS Admins LOCAL group. I was fully expecting it to be a domain group, not a local group.
Thank for pointing me in the right direction -----Original Message----- From: Troy Meyer [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, February 06, 2009 11:07 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: WSUS In a child Domain Those groups that its requiring membership in are local groups on the child server. Add your parent domain admin group to that local group and you shouldn't have any issues adding it to the console. -troy -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Anderson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, February 06, 2009 10:21 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: WSUS In a child Domain Local Admins Groups has localPC\Administrator and ChildDomain\domain Admins -----Original Message----- From: Troy Meyer [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, February 06, 2009 8:49 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: WSUS In a child Domain What does the local administrators group contain on the child WSUS server? -troy -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Anderson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, February 06, 2009 8:41 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: WSUS In a child Domain I am trying to manager my Child domain WSUS server from the parent domain. I am logging in to my workstation as an "Enterprise admin" ( I know - don't yell at me about Security) and my user account is in the WSUS Admins group. The WSUS admin security group only exist in the parent domain, not the child domain. The Child domain WSUS server is a downstream server to the Parent domain WSUS server and it is syncing properly. Whan I try to add the child domain WSUS server to the WSUS Console, (By using the FQDN) I recieve the error : "Cannot connect to Server.FQDN.local. You do not have premission required to access thiss WSUS Server. To Connect to the server you must be a member of the WSUS Administrators or WSUS Reporters Security Groups" I am a member of thoes groups in the parent domain, and thoes groups dont exist in the child domain. What am I missing here?
