Problems with SMS 2003 updates and Configuration Manager 2007.
The WSUS Offline Scan Catalog (wsusscn2.cab) fails to synchronize on a Configuration Manager 2007 or Configuration Manager 2007 SP1 site server using the Inventory Tool for Microsoft Updates (ITMU). This prevents security update deployments to SMS 2003 clients. This is a result of an issue with updated content published for the Office 2003 Service Pack 1 update.
The issue can be identified in the Wsyncmgr.log on the ConfigMgr 2007 site server running the Software Update Point role.
