I have multiple computer in my domain (EC2 instances in AWS account) which are getting updates from wsus server. But A newly created computer having a problem receiving updates from wsus server. I have tried multiple methods but no success so far. Does anyone know how to resolve this. Rest all servers are receiving update from the same WSUS without any problem. Following is the error that I am getting
