WSUS 3.0 installation problems...

WSUS 3.0 installation problems...
Wed, 5 Mar 2008 05:39:00 -0800
Main WSUS server has been upgraded to WSUS 3.0 and it runs Windows Server 
2003 SP2.

I decided to upgrade my remote office servers, which will be getting their 
updates from my main WSUS server.

I attempted to upgrade two servers and the installation went fine except for 
the last part...the wizard fails to run. I try to open the console and I get 
this message: Cannot connet to <server-name>. The server may be using
another 
port or different Secure Sockets Layer setting.

At first, I was letting WSUS use default port 80 configuration, but later on 
I tried using 8530 port and this still gives me the same problem.

All my servers are fully patched, and running .NET 2.0 SP1.

I saw several posts about this message, on a different forum, but I could 
not find a proper solution for my case.

Have you tried upgrading to WSUS 3.0 SP1 on both machines? I did and it 
solved quite a few problems.

It may have something to do with a firewall or port 80.

Cheers,

I am having the same issue.
I am running Server 2003 SP2 w/ WSUS 3.0 sp1 and I can run it fine through a 
RD Connection but not on my box with the SUSsp1 admin installed, but when I 
try to connect (port 80-default and has never changed) I get the "Cannot 
connect to 'SERVERNAME'. The server may be using another port or different 
Secure Sockets Layer setting." Everything was working fine last week.
