Nessus 3.06 versus WSUS conflict

Subject: Nessus 3.06 versus WSUS conflict
Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2007 10:07:52 -0400
Team,

I just ran a scan with Nessus 3.06 Suse Linux, Nessus 1.02 Client with
plugins dated 07/24/07 and executed with SMB rights.

The output regarding Windows Patches (MS05-MS07) contradicts the clients
WSUS output reports. In other words, Nessus is reporting the patches missing
but WSUS is indicating just the opposite.

Anybody come across this before? Is it a problem with the clients output,
the server and workstation registry settings or is it Nessus?

I am awaiting a response from the client where I asked that he take about 10
machines and examine the registry entries directly.

I am stumped and the client is looking for answers. Any help would be
appreciated

ASB
