Hey Man, sorry to say I don't have a solution for you, but
I am getting the same message. I am trying to install on
Win2k SP4 because a couple of our pc's don't have the
automatic update service or bits installed. I have not be
able to find a solution yet. I am looking for a way to
install these services so we can do automatic updates with
SUS. If you find anything let me know. Thanks.
