adding computers to computer group in WSUS
In WSUS console I created a computer group named clients. and in AD I created a GPO for client computers and enabled the settings for Client side targetting and under Target group name for this computer I typed Clients (which is the group name I created in WSUS)
But I still don't see any computer showing up under the CLients group name created in WSUS, even though there is no filtering applied .
Any idea ?
Thanks

<<you need to create the groups in WSUS and add the computers to the group in WSUS>>>
I did create the group in WSUS, but how to make the computers show up inside the group?

this is what I got when I ran:
reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mi crosoft\Wi ndows\Wind owsUpdate" /s
ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value.

That means that your clients arent getting the wsus group policies. Take a look at this guide:

I have a DNS issue in the other side, may be this is impacting the WSUS side.
That would also affect your clients from getting group policies
ASKER
DNS issue has been solved. we allowed TCP and UDP port 53 on the IPSec policy.
But the WSUS server still unable to show the computers

IPSec policy was impacting everything. I disabled the policy and now everything is working
If so you need to delete the key which is located at:
Local Machine | Software | Microsoft | Current Version | Windows | susclientid
After deleteing the registry entry run the following command to regenerate the key:
C:\wuauclt /detectnow /resetauthorization
