We have a pretty smal network. &nbsp;We run a Windows 2003 Server SP2. &nbsp; We recently replaced 3 &nbsp;XP computers on our network with Windows 7 Professional. Once these computers joined the domain, &nbsp;the Windows update feature is disabled. &nbsp;The Windows update has line that reads You receive updates: Managed by system administrator. &nbsp;I do not have Group Policies in my domain. &nbsp;We have never configured any at all in our small domain. &nbsp;<br />

At the present, &nbsp;the only way to get updates is to join a workgroup and then I can get updates. &nbsp;I am at a loss as what to do. &nbsp;I can't find anything on our server restricting access.
