Obtain drivers from MS-Server and updates from WSUS

Hi,
is there a possibility to obtain drivers from the MS Server and the "other" updates from the WSUS-Server?
We have workstations with Win7 and XP and pluged in devices (USB) should obtain the drivers (if available) automatically from MS-Server.
Obtaining drivers through WSUS is not an option.
The Group Policy "Computer Configuration\...\Windows Update" is set to obtain updates from "intranet Microsoft update service location".
Should there be no possibility to distinguish between driver and update obtaining locations,
then is it possible to set WSUS as primary obtaining location and as secondary the MS-Serve? 
Greets, 
Emmanuel

Like I mentioned before I tried to use this:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753091.aspx
1. Try:
Step1:
I uninstalled the device and deleted the driver of my testing device. (local)
Step2:
I have created a new GP on Server 2003R2x86 (AD/DC) and linked it in the OU where my test-PC is located.
.../ComputerConfiguration/Administrative Templates/System/InternetCommunicationManagement/Internet Communication Settings/TurnOffWindowsUpdateDeviceDriverSearching-->disabled
Step3:
I restarted the test PC with a logonscript: "gpupdate /force"
Result:
It didn't work.
2.Try:
Same procedure, but instead of creating the policy on the '03 Server, I created the policy with RSAT for W7.
Result:
It didn't work.
Now I have a new question:
Isn't the above mentioned policy for this?:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/automatically-get-recommended-drivers-and-updates-for-your-hardware
I ask, because this is exactly the setting that has to be changed so that everything works the way I want.
(at least for the Win7 PCs. I don't care much about the XP-PCs because they will be replaced in the near future)
Well one option is to change this setting manually on every PC, but this would be a huge PITA.
Can this be done in a policy or with a script (registry?)?

  • Skip Obtaining drivers from Windows Update using MDT 2012

    Does anyone know how to disable windows from obtaining drivers online after MDT is done imaging, the reason why I ask is that after the image is done, it takes forever for a dell keyboard to install drivers because windows is searching online. I would like
    to turn that setting off using MDT 2012 if possible.
    Thanks,
    Bobby

    Dynamic update only works when you are upgrading from an existing OS, and it only downloads critical drivers; network, video, audio, and mass storage. It wouldnt help in a bare metal build and probably wouldnt have anything to do with plug and play detecting
    a keyboard.

    Our online driver search hasnt worked in a while, since they began configuring our browser with a .PAC file pushed down via GPO. WinHTTP can't pick up settings from the PAC file, and we can't hard code the settings into the OS, because there are
    a number of different proxies depending on where in the world you are.
    I actually hard code proxy and WinHTTP settings while I build the reference image and then remove them, just so I can do automatic updates. It's amazing how much more work "security" causes sometimes.

  • Mail constantly is synchronising with server and updating cache directory!

    Mail constantly is synchronising with server (sent messages) and updating cache directory making everything slow.
    I have a .mac account. I understand the concept of IMAP and that it information is stored on the server therefore it needs to update but surely not constantly and besides the blue bar sticks halfway through without completing. Please help.

    I have had the same issue. Rebuilding fixes it temporarily, but it comes back....Also have an issue where Mail will not download attachments automatically. They show up in grey until they are clicked...have Mail set to download all messages and their attachments, but it doesn't want to. Very frustrating. I have begun the switch to Entourage, which is unfortunate, as I like Mail more.

  • I upgraded my 3 yr old iMac to Snow Leopard and now my HP C4150 Scanning function doesn't work (not recognized).  I downloaded updated Drivers from the HP site, but still no joy.  Any suggestions?

    I upgraded my 3 yr old iMac to Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) and now my HP C4150 Scanning function doesn't work (not recognized).  I downloaded updated Drivers from the HP site and installed them, but still no joy.  Any suggestions?

    aspaceman,
    Perhaps I owe you an apology.   Having re-read that downloading from HP was unsuccessful I feel uncomfortable.  Can I suggest you update your 10.6 system (as noted in your profile) to 10.6.8 (if it is not already there) by using the
    Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 combo update plus any software updates that then apply.  

  • Can I set an OU to have 2 GPO's one to pull updates from local server and another from replica server

    I'm looking for a solution where I don't change our current AD groups, (avoid using a local group and a field group), also trying to avoid using a server in a DMZ to handle field people (will need to buy a new server).
    At the end i'm looking to use a replica server to push updates from the internet to the field group (or OU with a GPO pointing to such replica server) and use the local server to host the updates locally and push to the office people.
    Probably this is the question that needs to be answered, can an OU group have 2 different GPO's pointing to 2 different WSUS servers (local and replica) (local updates vs updates from internet) and if an user of such group is in the office they get updates
    from the local server and if he is in the field get the updates from the replica server?  I know GPO's can have precedence set to the OU, but do they work like a trigger or something that tells them to go to the next GPO.
    Thanks in advance

    can an OU group have 2 different GPO's pointing to 2 different WSUS servers (local and replica) (local updates vs updates from internet)
    No.
    and if an user of such group is in the office they get updates from the local server and if he is in the field get the updates from the replica server?
    There are two ways to achieve this. Typically we talk about this scenario when the mobile systems are going to use AU/WU to get Security Updates. Taking advantage of the fact that GROUP policy cannot refresh on a machine which is not "in the office", you
    define a Registry Script to run in the user's STARTUP folder, which will set the registry values to configure that client to use the alternate source.
    But, in the case where you have an Internet-facing WSUS server in the DMZ, and a Corporate-facing WSUS server on the LAN, you use the SAME URL, but use DNS to direct the client to the correct IP Address. When the client is on the LAN, the LAN DNS gives the
    IP Address of the Corporate server; when the client is on the Internet, the Internet DNS gives the IP Address of the DMZ server.

  • Run e-tester from a server and have staff remotely update scripts

    Can we run the floating e-tester from a server and have staff remotely access the server to run and update scripts instead of installing the client on everyone's workstation?

    Original Question:
    Can we run the floating e-tester from a server and have staff remotely access the server to run and update scripts instead of installing the client on everyone's workstation?
    There are different alternatives to consider and different ways to answer the question.
    1) You can run e-Tester with a floating license from a server and have people to use remote desktop to run and create scripts.
    Pros:
    * Multiple users can be updating scripts in the server at the same time.
    * There is no need to install e-Tester in any other computer.
    Cons:
    * If the max number of floating licenses is reached no other person can open another instance of e-Tester.
    * Having multiple people running scripts in the Job scheduler will create conflicts therefore is not recommended. Running multiple instances of e-Tester manually shouldn't cause problems, but it is a slow way to do regression testing. The job scheduler can run a script after another without user intervention. Teamwork can be affected if the default settings are changed by different users.
    * Running thru remote desktop(or any other remote tool such as vnc) is slower than having etester in the computer. The refresh rate of the screen tends to be slower.
    * If multiple users are using the server resources at the same time it can slow down the work of others. The server can run out of memory or it will be slow because the CPU running near max capacity.
    2) You can run eTester with a node lock license from a server and have people to use remote desktop to run and create scripts.
    Pros:
    * Multiple users can be updating scripts in the server at the same time.
    * There is no need to install eTester in any other computer.
    * Only one license is required.
    Cons:
    * Having multiple people running scripts in the Job scheduler will create conflicts therefore is not recommended. Running multiple instances of etester manually shouldn't cause problems, but it is a slow way to do regression testing. The job scheduler can run a script after another without user intervention. Teamwork can be affected if the default settings are changed by different users.
    * Running thru remote desktop(or any other remote tool such as vnc) is slower than having etester in the computer. The refresh rate of the screen tends to be slower.
    * If multiple users are using the server resources at the same time it can slow down the work of others. The server can run out of memory or it will be slow because the CPU running near max capacity.
    Notes:
    1) Having eTester installed in each individual's computer will allow the person to run tests with no worries about conflicts of server resources or job schedules trying to start an etester instance. Installing etester is a one time thing that takes in general less than 10 minutes.
    2) Instead of sharing the server resources you can share the place where the scripts reside. You can place the scripts in a central location and and configure etester to read the scripts from there. Instructions on how to do this should be in the knowledge base (if not please let me know)(Don't be lazy Zuriel, paste the link here).
    3) You can consider to have eManager Enterprise if you want to have better organization of the scripts. In eManager Enterprise you can relate your test cases to your scripts, you can run the scripts from a central location, it is less limited for scheduling scripts than the JobScheduler, and it can be accessed from anywhere inside the company with a web browser (for security reasons requires username and password). eManager Enterprise doesn't have the ability to create or update scripts, it uses scripts that were created in eTester already.
    eManager can also create schedules conflicts if multiple runs are attempted. There are ways to deal with this situation by having multiple computers to run the tests. (Please post in another thread if more information is necessary).
    I hope this helps.

  • New server and/or CA certificate for connection from custom authentication

    We are running Access Manager version 72005Q4 in the Sun ONE Web Server 6.1SP5 B06/23/2005 container with java build 1.5.0_07-b03. I run a custom authentication module which checks sessions against our university single sign on system which is CAS (from Yale/Jasig). The checks are essentially https calls. All this has been working well for us for the last couple of years.
    I would like to migrate the certificate used on the university CAS system from a Verisign certificate to a wildcard certificate issued by the IPS CA in spain -- these are in most browsers but are not in the standard batch of cacerts CA's -- and are free for .edu domains.
    My other java based authentication plugins (Blackboard, custom apps etc) have worked fine once I import the certificate into the cacerts for the java container, but I'm missing something (obvious probably) about importing this certificate so that my amserver custom authentication module can connect to the CAS server once the CAS server is using the new certificate.
    Could anyone provide guidance on where I need to import this server certificate (or preferably the IPS CA) in order to allow the custom authentication module to work properly? I assume this same problem has been solved by people wishing to connect from the amserver to services with self signed certificates. For some reason I'm finding the debugging unexpectedly difficult, I'll outline some of those details below.
    Relevant things I've tried so far:
    Import both the server cert and the IPS CA into the cacerts of the java container identified in the web server server.xml /usr/jdk/entsys-j2se.
    Import the IPS CA into the web server cert8 style db via the web admin server.
    The debugging has surprised me a bit, as I'm not getting an error that is explicitly SSL related error. It almost seems like the URLConnection object ends up using a HttpURLConnection rather than an HttpsURLConnection and never gives me a cert error, rather a connection refused since there is no non SSL service running on CAS. The same code pointed to the server running the verisign cert works as expected.

    The relevent bit of code from the SecureURL.retrieve looks as follows:
    URL u = new URL(url);
    if (!u.getProtocol().equals("https"))
    throw new IOException("only 'https' URLs are valid for this method");
    URLConnection uc = u.openConnection();
    uc.setRequestProperty("Connection", "close");
    r = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(uc.getInputStream()));
    String line;
    StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
    while ((line = r.readLine()) != null)
    buf.append(line + "\n");
    return buf.toString();
    } finally { ...
    The fact that this same code in other authentication modules running outside the amserver (in other web containers as well, tomcat and resin for example) running java 1.5 works fine with the new CA, as well as with self signed certs that I've imported into the appropriate cacerts file leads me to believe that I'm either importing the certificate into the wrong store, or that there is some additional step needed for the amserver in the Sun Web container.
    Thank you very much for any insights and help,
    Ethan

    I thought since this has had a fair number of views I would give an update.
    I have been able to confirm that the custom authentication module is using the cert8 db defined in the AMConfig property com.iplanet.am.admin.cli.certdb.dir as documented. I do seem to have a problem using the certificate to make outgoing connections, even though the certificate verifies correctly for use as a server certificate. This is likely a question for a different forum, but just to show what I'm looking at:
    root@jbc1 providers#/usr/sfw/bin/certutil -V -n "FSU Wildcard Certificate" -d /opt/SUNWwbsvr/alias -P https-jbc1.ucs.fsu.edu-jbc1- -u V
    certutil: certificate is valid
    root@jbc1 providers#/usr/sfw/bin/certutil -V -n "FSU Wildcard Certificate" -d /opt/SUNWwbsvr/alias -P https-jbc1.ucs.fsu.edu-jbc1- -u C
    certutil: certificate is invalid: Certificate type not approved for application.
    root@jbc1 providers#/usr/sfw/bin/certutil -M -n "FSU Wildcard Certificate" -d /opt/SUNWwbsvr/alias -P https-jbc1.ucs.fsu.edu-jbc1- -t uP,uP,uP
    root@jbc1 providers#/usr/sfw/bin/certutil -V -l -n "FSU Wildcard Certificate" -d /opt/SUNWwbsvr/alias -P https-jbc1.ucs.fsu.edu-jbc1- -u C
    FSU Wildcard Certificate : Certificate type not approved for application.
    So it could be that I don't understand how to use the certutiil to get the permissions I want, or it could be that using the same certificate for both server and client functions is not supported -- though you can see why this would be a common case with wildcard certificates.
    BTW for those interested, it did seem to be the case that when the certificate failure occurred that the attempt was then made by the URLConnection to bind to port 80 in cleartext even though the URL was clearly https. I'm sure this was just an attempt to help out misformed URL, but it seemed that the URLConnection implementation in the amserver would swapped traffic over cleartext if that port had been open on the server I was making the https connection to; that seems dangerous to me, I would not have wanted it to quietly work that way exposing sensitive information to the network.
    This was why I was getting back a connection refused instead of a certificate exception. The URLConnection implementation used by the amserver is defined by java.protocol.handler.pkgs=com.iplanet.services.comm argument passwd to the JVM, and I imagine this is done because the amserver pre-dates the inclusion of the sun.net.www.protocol handlers, but I don't know, there maybe reasons why the amserver wants it own handler. I only noticed that this is what was going on when I as casting the httpsURLConnection objects to other types trying to diagnose the certificate problem. I would be interested in hearing if anyone knows if there is a reason not to use sun.net.www.protocol with the amserver.
    After switching to the sun.net.www.protocol handler I was able to get my certificate errors rather than the "Connection Refused" which is what lead me to the above questions about certutil.

    UPDATE: I had 36 Safari windows open and minimized on the dock from my last session; 20 of those windows failed to open b/c Safari "couldn't find the server"; I just went to the URL bar of all 20 pages and clicked return, and all 20 pages loaded perfectly, without dropping any images or losing formatting. This is a puzzle!!!

  • Clients cannot update from WSUS server - error 8024400E

    Alright, so I'm troubleshooting our WSUS server and seem to be stuck. I am running WSUS 3.2.7600.226 on Server 2003.  The client I have been using for testing is Windows 7 x64, but we have this issue on all clients (XP, 7 x86, and 7 x64).  I started
    with an error of 800B0001 and after googling installed KB2720211 to fix it. Now I am getting error 8024400E on clients when I attempt to update. I followed a technet walkthrough and verified that my WSUS settings are all correct (at least regarding iis,
    registry, gpo settings, and file system permissions). I am able to download CAB files from the WSUS server by going to the proper address in a browser. Here is a snippet from my WindowsUpdate log on my client:

    the instructions on a technet site to disable the update and am still getting the same error. I'm stumped at this point, and I thought I would post here in the hope that someone can help me before I end up just wiping it out and reinstalling (which I'm worried
    won't even solve it).

    the instructions on a technet site to disable the update and am still getting the same error.
    While you're definitely on the right track, the Office2003SP1 update really has not been an issue since WSUS Service Pack 2 was released in October 2009 (and really, the Office2003SP1 update that was the cause of this was replaced long before that even,
    so you probably don't even have the defective update on your server).
    However, the error is generally associated with the presence of defective update(s) on the WSUS server, so the first thing to do is address any potential issues caused by a failed install of KB2720211.
    If the error still persists after verifying that all other aspects of the server are fully operational, review the list of not-Declined updates on your WSUS server and make sure that:
    All Expired updates are Declined (and then run the Server Cleanup Wizard and let it delete the expired updates).
    All approvals for older revisions have been removed (and then run the Server Cleanup Wizard and let it delete the older revisions).
    All approvals for superseded updates have been removed. (And then, when they report as 100% Not Applicable, decline them, and then run the Server Cleanup Wizard so that it can delete the files associated with those updates).
    Once all of the potentially problematic updates have been removed from the view of the Windows Update Agent, and if this error then persists, we can evaluate it from a more focused perspective.

    After i updated my iphone 4s from 8.1.2 to 8.1.3 problem occurred.i cant restore and update my phone?saying that iphone could not be restored,an unknown error ocuurred.please help me?

    Thanks for the update and clarification. In researching the issue it seems that the 2003 error code may have something to do with the USB connection. I would use this section of one of the above articles:
    Get help with iOS update and restore errors
    If the USB connection between your device and computer is interrupted, you might not be able to update or restore.
    To narrow down the issue, you can try different equipment:
    Use the USB cable that came with your device, or a different Apple USB cable. 
    Plug your cable into a different USB port directly on your computer. Don't plug it into your keyboard.
    Try a different computer.
    Solve other issues with the USB connection, then with your security software.
    If you still see the error message, check for hardware issues by following the next section.
    Check for hardware issues
    Related errors: 1, 3, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
    These errors mean that your device or computer might have a hardware issue that stops the update or restore from completing.
    Check that your security software and settings aren't blocking your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
    Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
    Make sure that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
    If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

  • If I remove itunes and its drivers from my computer, as recommended by someone at the Apple store for a problem I'm having, I know my music will come back, but will my playlists still be there as they are now?

    If I remove itunes and its drivers from my computer, as recommended by someone at the Apple store for a problem I'm having, I know my music will come back, but will my playlists still be there as they are now? I forgot to ask.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Having issues updating Bootcamp drivers from 11.1 to 11.7

    having issues updating Bootcamp drivers from 11.1 to 11.7
    No matter what driver I have tried thus far
    it does not install or update the drivers
    Battlefield 3 nags you about having 11.1 and needing to update.
    However this game proceeds to load using these drivers (11.1 )
    I recently bought NFS THE RUN.
    Unlike BF3 the game does not proceed therefore inorder to play this game i would need 11.7 or higher.
    can someone please provide the driver that actualy installs and works.
    My specs are MBP 15 inch
    1 gig GPU ( AMD Radeon 6750m)
    8 gigs on Ram
    2.2 CPU i7

    Take a look around my bookmarks
    you are updating AMD, not Boot Camp drivers.
    you need to uninstall first.
    probably need to update via Device Manager not via Install from AMD
