Yes, I do have a group policy for the WSUS.
In the event viewer I get an error on event Id 506
The self update tree is not working....

I've checked all permissions on the necessary folders. I also ran the :%ProgramFiles%/Update Services/Setup/InstallSelfupdateOnPort80.vbs, did not help. Tried port 80 did not work. Thank You for trying to help.....

in this case, verify that the server can connect to Microsofts server and pull updates. If you get any failed synch messages in WSUS, make sure you follow the deployment guide in setting up your server to pull updates from Microsoft and the appropriate ports on your firewall are open.

If your server can not pull updates from Microsoft you have to solve that problem first before configuring your clients to pull updates from your WSUS server.

When all else fails, uninstall WSUS and BITS and reinstall both. Then follow the deployment guide.
