We have a custom LiveUpdate policy for this particular group. Only the Single Group Update Provider has been set with the FQDN of our GUP server for this site. Multiple and Explicit are unchecked. Also the 'Maximum time clients...' setting is set to Never so it will only be allowed to download content from the GUP server.
In the registry settings on client computers the MasterClientHost string is correctly set to this defined GUP in our policy. However, the guplist generated from the globallist.xml from the SEPM is still making our clients look for multiple GUP's due to the matching netmask.
I thought that the Single Group Update Provider should be adhered to and not the calculated one that the SEPM generates (even though we have no Multiple Group Update Providers defined).
So I'm wondering if SEPM always generates a default list of GUP's (by having them enabled as GUP's by policy) and if the netmask matches, it will give this list of GUPs to the clients to use no matter what is set in policy.
