I am trying to test SUS. All my settings seem to be fine
except I cannot get the client updates to install. I
setup the cleint agent in group policy. My test
workstation installs the cleint agent. Windows update
downloads the updates from the SUS server but it does not
automatically install the updates. I setup policy so that
it downloads and install updates automatically but it
does not work. Is there something I am missing. I am
logged in with a domain admin user.

i know the first time i set up my SUS i had to reboot it before it would
start pushing out the installs... are you sure that on the server you have
the updates to install immediately...? also, you know the client side will
install the updates on a reboot.... not live?

the value for the key above will answer the question... but these are just
some things to keep in mind.
