WSUS Clients not showing

I have WSUS 3.1.6001.65 on Windows Server 2003 SP2 - all clients are Windows XP pro sp2 or sp3

I have created a GP that governs all PC's on my domain to point to the WSUS server for updates. I have verified that it is working because clients are recieveing and downloading the updates from the WSUS server. The issue is, only about 25% of the clients register and show up in the WSUS console. Most of them are wireless laptops which I know are connecting because they are receiving updates from the server.

I set this up several weeks ago figuring I would give my clients enough time to "register"

Any idea why my clients are not hsowing up in WSUS?

Also if you used imaging on the clients, use the following script to handle duplicate sids
 
Save as fixwsus.cmd

 

%Windir%\system32\net.exe stop bits 
%Windir%\system32\net.exe stop wuauserv
 
reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate /v AccountDomainSid /f
reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate /v PingID /f
reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate /v SusClientId /f
reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate /v SusClientValidation /f
reg delete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update" /v LastWaitTimeout /f
reg delete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update" /v DetectionStartTime /f
reg delete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update" /v NextDetectionTime /f

ASKER

Before they were imaged, we ran sysprep. Doesnt this clear the SID?
Would the script be ran on the clients or the server?
clients
Do you know how I would convert this cmd script to a kix so I can have clients install it on login?
