By the way, Susan: Our Server box gets its updates from WSUS on another server and can still contact it without any trouble , but its muauth.

Why is it taking MS so long to react? Seems like a simple fix here. This is becoming tiresome. Andreas 1. I agree as this indeed seems to boil down to a simple expiration problem.

Temporarily setting the date back works for me too. Setting the date back for WHS does not work. Need to use the previously mentioned process, stop services, delete dir then re-enable services.

Works well then. I have two WHS boxes and the date trick would not work on either. I simply renamed the authcab. Are your servers using Windows Time service to keep accurate time? You might need to do " net stop w32time " before you change the date. Looks like we'll have to use the workaround for now until MS figures out the problem Dani Avni. Saturday, November 22, AM. By-the-way "Microsoft baseline Security Analyser" is still able to find "Microsoft Updates" Update: I tried renaming the "software distribution" folder but it hasn't fixed the problem.

Again, tweet WindowsUpdate and Microsoft with a link to this forum until they contribute. Monday, November 24, PM. Long Thursday, December 25, PM.

Many Thanks!!! OLD post-fix. Wednesday, November 26, PM. Worked again as expected here in Germany On my XP and also on Windows Greetings Ritchy. Greetings Ritchy I can confirm that the WS machine that was failing for me previously is working again as well.

Edited by b Thursday, November 27, PM log check. Checked three of our servers again today and can confirm it is now working again. I had not applied any permanent change - just used the temporary workaround. That means it looks like Microsoft have fixed this. And slowly. Same old Microsoft.
