Yep, looked like the enforcement at the root of the old Disable Windows Updates policy from Windows 2003 was the problem, weird problem it was at the root of my accounts domain, didn't think right off the bat it cause the issue with the DC OU's but yep, it did, now I got to recreate it accordingly.

Editing the registry is easy enough; but if it's a GPO, it'll just get refreshed at the next update interval.. Regards, Michael B.

Any Idea accordingly? We had a GPO from the Windows 2003 domain which disabled automatic updates at the ROOT of the Child domain. This isnt a problem in the root domain. ALL DC's are virtual except for one. Any ideas? Z Edward E.
