Our WSUS 3.0 SP1 server is not displaying any client machines.  What can we do to rectify this?

We have upgraded to WSUS 3.0 SP1 after our WSUS 3.0 server stopped synchronizing Windows XP updates from Microsoft.  Even after the upgrade we were still experiencing the same issue.  After performing extensive troubleshooting I decided to completely uninstall WSUS including the database and I perform a complete re-install.  

We are now able to obtain Windows XP and all other updates however, none of our client machines are checking into the server.  Below are some of the things that I have done to troubleshoot the issue.  

1. On the client machines I ran the following command to force the machine to check into the WSUS server.  
   
wuauclt.exe /resetauthorization /detectnow

3.After running the command the client did not show up on the WSUS server. I looked at the error logs on the WSUS Server and I saw corresponding error logs that read.  (Additional Detail in attached IIS-log.txt file)

/ClientWebService/client.asmx - 80 - 10.127.4.180 Windows-Update-Agent 404 2 1260

2.  I then looked at the C:\WINDOWS\WindowsUpdate.log file on the client machine.  I noticed the following errors in the log.
