Software Update Service with Panther Clients

I have Software Update Service running on OS-X Server 10.4.5 Works fine with any 10.4 client, but my 10.3.9 clients act like its not even there.

I have done the defaults.write com.apple.SoftwareUpdate… command on a few of them and can’t seem to figure out why its not working. The 10.3.9 machines can see the server update http link if I type the same address in Safari, so they can get to the machine just fine.

Checking the logs under /var/log/swupd shows that the 10.3.9 boxes aren’t even connecting.
I guess it would make sense since the updates in my catalog are all ones pertaining to Tiger and not Panther.

Any idea on how to get this working, short of setting up a sep. Panther server??
