Clients Not Finding WSUS After Move

[sysadmin123]

I had WSUS installed and working fine on a Windows 2000 server box at our main location and we just recently upgraded and replaced the 2000 box with a windows 2003 server box.

Of course I had group policy pointing to the old server and the new one has a new name so I went into group policy and changed that but the clients still aren't contacted the WSUS server.

It's working fine because I can sychronize updates etc but the area where computers are added is still empty.

Any suggestions?

Well I figured out is was a group policy issues but I still have some stations that aren't communicating with the WSUS server while the rest are. Any suggestions on how to force them to connect?

Run a GPUPDATE to refresh the policy and then to force them to check in do wuauclt /detectnow
