SYMPTOMS
Microsoft Software Update Services (SUS) 1.0 clients and SUS 1.0 Service Pack 1 clients automatically update to version 3.0 of the Windows Update Agent client when they access Windows Update, unless Group Policy restricts their access to Windows Update. However, after this update occurs, the clients can no longer communicate with a SUS 1.0 server.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, download and install version 2.0 of the Windows Update Agent client. This version is compatible with SUS 1.0 and with Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) 2.0. When this client is mapped to a WSUS 3.0 server, the client will automatically update itself to version 3.0 of the Windows Update Agent client.
