I have a HP NAS storge server running Windows 2003 Server Appliance Edition. I have a WSUS server that is suppose to hand the Windows updates out but I found out that the NAS server has never taken any updates! I have ran the tool to check to make sure the client can talk to the WSUS server. Any ideas on what would cause the server not to push the updates out or if there is a way I can bypass the WSUS and get updates right from Microsoft?

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).

Operating system security (OS security) is the process of ensuring OS integrity, confidentiality and availability. OS security refers to specified steps or measures used to protect the OS from threats, viruses, worms, malware or remote hacker intrusions. OS security encompasses all preventive-control techniques, which safeguard any computer assets capable of being stolen, edited or deleted if OS security is compromised, including authentication, passwords and threats to systems and programs.
