Windows Server System news and real-world info
Pardon the brevity... but I'm sitting on the floor in the Seattle Convention Center listening to the Gates keynote. However, I wanted to post regarding Windows Server 2003 SP2 being released to the web. One interesting thing I haven't seen in any previous service pack is the inclusion of a 'Hotfix Scan Tool'. This tool identifies hotfixes that may be rolled back when you install SP2. I'll do some testing of SP2 RTM as time permits - and if you have comments on your own testing/deployment please post a comment below.
- The 32-bit version of SP2 weighs in at 372MB
- KB article 914961 should be updated shortly and will contain important SP2 links
- Small Business Server 2003 users should review KB932600 before applying SP2
