Installed SUS on the AD/DC (SP4). Synchronized to get the update. Picked one update and approved it.

Problem: Unable push it to the client.
I have a Group policy on AD/DC with file wuau.adm added.
I log off and log onl, no luck

Client computer has SP3 with full admin rights. Any help and ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Allen

Thanks for checking, you must have read an old article.
Microsoft FAQ says it supports DC Active Directory.

http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/windowsupdate/sus/susfaq.asp

Q. Can I run SUS on an Active Directory? directory service domain controller?

A. Yes. SUS 1.0 with SP1 allows for this.

Anyway, Since I posted the article, I have fixed the problem. All the settings I had was correct. The problem was the group policy was not updating, our repliacation was default 3 hours. I tried the following command to force GP.

On command prompt.
c:\secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy /enforce
c:\secedit /refreshpolicy user_policy /enforce
