Benjamin,
First of all, please check whether your server setup is proper. The easiest way to check that would be trying to use SUS client on
XP Pro machine on the same network and trying to connect it to the server.
The error 0x8024002E is SUS_E_WU_DISABLED ("Non Managed Server Access Is Disallowed")
Fixes I've seen on Web were mostly about playing with local WU policies on the device.
E.g., check and delete, if exist, the following value:
[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer],"NoWindowsUpdate"
The same here:
[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\WindowsUpdate],"DisableWindowsUpdateAccess".
[HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate],"DisableWindowsUpdateAccess".
If it doesn't help, you may want to attach the WU log file and post it here (please use OE client).
As to the Configuration, please make sure you've got all (!) the dependencies resolved for "Windows Update Agent for SUS 1.0
Servers" component.
At run time, please verify that \WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\Logs\edb.chk file gets created (if not, try to copy it from
XP Pro machine, reboot and see again what's happening).

Thank you for your help! But I also try SUS solution from our own XPP SUS
server, I've got the same error code in the log file WindowsUpdate.log . The
messages are "WU client fails CClientCallRecorder::BeginFindUpdates from
WindowsUpdate with error 0x8024002e","ISusInternal::BeginFindUpdates failed,
hr=8024002E","Unable to initiate asynchronous search, hr=8024002E". Hope for
your further suggestion!
Rgds,
Benjamin
