Windows Update fails!

I have seen Windows Update fail to update on lots of Windows 2003 installations.
Especially if the server are being deployed using Provisioning Services.
You check the 3 main services are started:
  • Automatic Updates
  • BITS
  • EventLog
But regardless of you actions updates fail.
The following article is a worthwhile read as it goes through the troubleshooting steps required to fix this issue.
In many cases the re-regsitering of the Windows Update dll's is the solution but there are other possibilities that are worth noting.
