OSX server – issue with Software Update with other VLANs clients

[carlocarlo]

Hi all,

I am experiencing an issue where the OSX server-based Software Update service only works if I connect from a client inside the same VLAN the OSX server belongs to.
If I tried to check for updates from whithin another VLAN, the message “Your software is up to date” appears although I know there updates left.
If I connect with a web browser from the same client (in a different VLAN), pointing to the OSX server IP number, I can see the complete list of available packages.
Is there any special setup/setting I have to be aware of when dealing with VLANs and SU ?
This OSX server is just a test machine with a very basic setup, since all the major network services (DNS, DHCP and the like are being managed by W2k3 servers)

Many thanks for your kind attention!
Ciao
Carlo
OSX server 10.4.10
