0x800705b4 - Software Updates Failing During OSD

Hello All,

I'm working with a colleague in the state to try and help resolve their schools software update issues. What I know is that they had a consultant install their environment and come back for any tweaks. That consultant is no longer around so I'm trying to help out, but this is an issue I haven't run into in my environment.

I'm seeing 0x800705b4 errors in the logs. It sits at the Software Update phase until it's timeout and then errors out.

• We've tried letting it continue on error and adding restarts (http://www.faqshop.com/configmgr2007/default.htm?http://www.faqshop.com/configmgr2007/trobshoot/tosd/ts%20failed%200x800705B4.htm) but that didn't seem to help.
• I've tried defining the SMSSLP installation property.

I was thinking maybe they had a problem with their DP or communication with their DP, but their software continues to come down during the OSD and I just heard that they were able to package up IE11 (with prereqs) and get that to come down on a test machine with OSD. Now I'm back to wanting to blame SUP/WSUS.

I'm hesitant to blow out the SUP and WSUS and rebuild it, but I'm starting to run out of ideas.

I'm planning on remoting into the environment again this evening to poke around. Anyone have any ideas or additional log files I should be looking at?
