Hi guys iv installed this process and it looks like iv configured it to work as the help file shows but im having some difficulty's with getting the machines to use the service, iv also noticed that when i try to browse to the server on port 8530 (which is the correct port) i get nothing. I have edited the default GPO to automatically go to the update server for its updates and ran a gpupdate and the machines still dont populate the "computer" box.

Any ideas where i am going wrong?
 
This page has the bare basics for setting up WSUS. That link also has a screenshot of what the policy should look like. If you don't put in the "http://" on the server name it won't work. If the policy isn't applying on your clients, you can use the gpresult.exe and rsop.msc tools to look for errors and troubleshoot group policy. Also, if you did set it to use port 8530, you need to add that to your URL in the gpo, i.e. "http://server:8530"
