All workstations must be running SP3 in order to be compatible with SuS as Thane just stated...

Have you also installed the Windows Update client via group policy on the client machines? This is necessary before the machines will see the SUS server.

Thanks,
Thane

I have configured a test SUS server. It downloads the patches fine, but I can't seem to get the client to connect and download patches. I set Windows Update in the Group Policy to "enable", and set it to the server "http://peter" (the name of the test SUS server). How do I know if it is actually connecting to it? It doesn't mention Thomas (this computer) connecting to it in the SUS log, but it does say that it successfully d/led the patches to Peter. How do I check? When I go to "windows update" in the Start menu that just connects me to Microsoft's page...
