WSUS Proxy Authentication Error

I am receiving this error: (System.Net.WebException: The remote server
returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required), which occured after
we changed our default gateway for the network this stand-alone WSUS server
resides on. However, WSUS has never been nor is it currently configured to
use a proxy server. Neither is Internet Explorer on the system WSUS resides
on. We are running the latest build of WSUS (Build 2.0.0.2472). Fifty nodes
are now not receiving updates. Please help. Below is the Details of the
failure log:

Re: WSUS Proxy Authentication Error

If neither WSUS or IE have been defined to use a proxy, then this is
probably the result of a network-transparent proxy/firewall re-directing
traffic. Probably a firewall on your network has stopped the traffic,
is modifying it, rejecting it, or redirecting it to a proxy that
requires authentication. Thats the only way you can get 407.

One other possibility: Is there a DHCP-defined proxy setting, or even
an Automatic proxy script ?

RE: WSUS Proxy Authentication Error

There is a IWSS (Trend Micro Interscan Web Security Suite) that is defined as
a proxy for client machines via Group Policy for Internet Explorer, however
that policy is not assigned to servers such as the WSUS server. And my
firewalls do not block any outgoing services at this location. Do be aware
that this has been in place for some time and this behavior started happening
after the default gateway was modified for the network which is assigned via
DHCP to client machines. Tracerts show proper direction for web requests
from the WSUS server to the new gateway.

RE: WSUS Proxy Authentication Error

Hi,

Is this a WSUS Sync problem or a problem with the Clients not being able to
access the WSUS Server? If it is a problem with the clients, then are "they"
configured to use the Proxy? I have an ISA proxy that requires
authentication. For the Clients to successfully connect to the WSUS server,
even internally, I had to add an ISA rule "do not use proxy" for any network
traffic TO the WSUS Server's IP.

Cheers,

Lara

RE: WSUS Proxy Authentication Error

This is a WSUS sync error, not a client connection error. Tho I am not that
familiar with ISA server, if your WSUS server is on the local network with
the clients in questions, I would probably just bypass the proxy server for
local addresses in Group Policy.

RE: WSUS Proxy Authentication Error

Hi,

Oh, that policy is enabled. It doesn't make a difference though. It is the
firewall client that is the problem. If it is installed then it talks to the
ISA for all http: traffic.

I am assuming it is something to do with your proxy getting involved. Have
you thought to just add it and the authentication account?

Cheers,

Lara

RE: WSUS Proxy Authentication Error

We are not using an ISA server. Our proxy is an anti-virus/anti-spyware
screen which is only used if an application has a proxy definition within it
or uses the proxy defined in IE. While WSUS has the facility to define the
proxy within the app, it is not defined which means it is not using a proxy.
Nor is IE using a proxy on the WSUS server.

RE: WSUS Proxy Authentication Error

Hi,

With my proxy, if the proxy isn't defined in IE or with the client than the
machine cannot access the internet at all. There is no "bypass" option
otherwise my users would bypass it. Do you have a "bypass proxy" option on
your network? Does the machine directly connect to the internet without any
problems? Can you go to Windows Update manually on it without using any
defined proxy?

The one sure way to test it is to take the WSUS server and plug it directly
into the internet connection and see if it works then. If so then it is the
proxy being a problem (defined or not). This was in the help menu I found
for WUS beta.

To configure your firewall
If there is a firewall between WUS and the Internet, you might need to
configure the firewall to ensure that WUS can obtain updates. The WUS server
uses port 80 and port 443 to obtain updates from Microsoft Update. This is
not configurable.
• If there is a firewall between your network and the Internet, you might
have to open port 80 for HTTP protocol and port 443 for HTTPS protocol.
• If your organization does not allow those ports and protocols open to all
addresses, you can restrict access to only the following domains so that WUS
and Automatic Updates can communicate with Microsoft Update:
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
http://*.windowsupdate.microsoft.com
https://*.windowsupdate.microsoft.com
http://*.update.microsoft.com
http://*.windowsupdate.com
http://download.windowsupdate.com
http://*.download.windowsupdate.com
http://wustat.windows.com
http://ntservicepack.microsoft.com


Cheers,

Lara

RE: WSUS Proxy Authentication Error



he is not using a proxy, so please stop posting stuff about his proxy
server. Do you have a static IP? and did you change the default gateway on
your WSUS server? Let me know if you have solved the problem.

Hi Kackler,

Actually, in E2Engines post he said he IS using a Proxy server in his
network. <quote from E2Engine>"Our proxy is an anti-virus/anti-spyware screen
which is only used if an application has a proxy definition within it or uses
the proxy defined in IE".<end quote>

IF you have anything to post then PLEASE reply directly to his post (rather
than mine) and PLEASE REFRAIN from telling me what to Post. I believe it is a
Proxy issue or WSUS wouldn't be giving him a Proxy Authentication error. You
have every right to believe differently however, I would rather if you stuck
to helping him out with other suggestions rather than slagging my posts.

Thank you

Lara

Fix for me

Hi

I has the same problem and was using a proxy :)

Fix for me was to set the proxy server in WSUS and I.E. Originally it was set in WSUS only and not I.E. Issue only occurred when we upgraded to WSUS 3.0.

You must have done something else, because merely setting the proxy server
in IE won't have a nit of impact on the operation of WSUS.
