David installs Software Update Services on a computer named S3. He creates a Group Policy object that configures all client computers to receive software updates from S3. Later, David runs MBSA on all client computers to check if all updates are applied. David discovers that all the Windows 2000 Professional client computers received updates, but Windows XP Professional client computers did not.

  1. Migrate all users of the Windows XP Professional client computers to the Administrators local group.
  2. Restart Automatic Updates on all Windows XP Professional client computers.
  3. Delete the NoAutoUpdate value under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE\Policies \Microsoft\ Windows \ WindowsUpdate\AU on all Windows XP Professional client computers.
  4. Install Service Pack 1 (SP1) on all Windows XP Professional client computers.
Explanation
Answer - D - To ensure that the Windows XP Professional client computers receive their updates from S3, David should Install Service Pack 1 (SP1) on all Windows XP Professional client computers.

Key Takeaway: Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer or MBSA helps administrators determine the security state of their users’ computers. It checks if the security state is in accordance with Microsoft security recommendations and offers specific remediation guidance. You can use MBSA to detect and fix common security misconfigurations and missing security updates on your computer systems. For a Windows Update to work, the minimum requirement on a XP computer is Service Pack 1. The Windows Update feature does not work on XP computers without Service Packs.
