I'm having an issue resolving endpoint protection - some people update, but the majority do not update. we have to update manually. On several of the machine, we are getting Failed to send request to <host>, error 0x2ee7, which i have looked up and shows the DNS could be set incorrectly, which it is not. Any suggestion on what to look for? i've looked it all logs. 

Failed in WinHttpSendRequest API, ErrorCode = 0x2ee7 FSPStateMessage 4/5/2015 1:53:36 AM 4844 (0x12EC)

Hello,

Did you ever resolve this?

That error is always a networking error, DNS or Firewall generally. Start there.

No, I am still trying to figure it out. There is no networking, DNS or firewall issue. I've done the flushdns, etc.

if you open the URL in a browser on that computer does it work? Do you have a Proxy server in place? 

[kcghonda1984 0]

we actually go through our SCCM server; these machines do not reach the internet.

[GarthMJ 120]

ok but if you open the URL HTTP://SCCM01.XXX.YYYYY/SMS_FSP/.sms_fsp on one of these computers work? 

[kcghonda1984 0]

no, the user doesn't have access to it. I'm assuming the sccm01, is the server?

this is in the error: WARNING: WinHttp: SendRequestUsingProxy failed for <http://download.microsoft.com/v11/2/windowsupdate/redir/v6-win7sp1-wuredir.cab>. error 0x80072ee2

First off that is not the same URL as above. 

Secondly. In the URL above, can you in a browser download this cab file? if not this is your problem. There is a network issue between the client and the URL.

[kcghonda1984 0]

NO, that's not the same URL. It was from the log file.

[GarthMJ 120]

Again, my point being if you take the URL and paste it into IE does it work? It should work. If it doesn't work then that shows you the problem. If it does work, do it again with the Local System account and IE, does that work?

May this GIF will help explain things.  Does the URL work in IE or chrome? It should work.
