Hey everyone, I hope someone can help with this.

I've recently upgraded our company SUS server to WSUS. The network is 2000-based, with 2000 professional on all clients.

As part of a test to roll-out XP across the network, I installed it on my personal machine. Since that point, I've found that my machine will not pickup the Group Policy settings for WSUS.

The XP client receives all other GP settings, except for the WSUS settings. Results from rsop.msc revealed the following message:

"Group Policy Infrastructure failed due to the error listed below.
Access is denied.

Note: Due to the GP Core failure, none of the other Group Policy components processed their policy. Consequently, status information for the other components is not available."

I currently suspect there is some kind of XP setting that is preventing the GP from writing information to the XP registry, but I would welcome any alternative views on this.

Has anyone experienced this before? I'm at a loss as to where to go next. If any more information is required please ask, and I will provide you with it.

Thanks :)
