I have installed 3 server topology for FCS deployment. I have Management console + cleection server with database on one server. I have reporting server and its databse on second server and i have distribution server( running WSUS) on 3rd server (have automatic approval for all computers for forefront security). I have created a policy and deployed it through Group policy. I have deployed one winxp (with windows installed + windows update agent) for testing. I can see the group policy applied to this workstation (rsop.msc) but i don't see forefront client security agent installing through WSUS . Can anyone give me some pointers on what could be wrong? If i have missing somethind and need to be done to install client agent through WSUS\distribution server? Thanks in advance.
It sounds like you still need to manually approve the FCS client component. Auto approval rules won't do the trick for any update with a EULA, and the FCS client has a EULA you'll need to acknowledge before the update will be distributed to your clients.
