Re: SBS 2003 Windows Update Question

SQL 2000 sp4 is not WSUSable as far as I remember (I will confirm but I'm pretty sure creaky SQL 2000 can't be wsus'd until after SP4. This comes in via SBS 2003 sp1 is applied.

My company did not install the SBS.
We have been called in to install an accounting app. that uses SQL
server.
We noticed that the SQL Server 2000 SP4 was not installed and
'complained' to the company that installed the SBS.
They said that there was no SQL 2000 SP4 since it did not
automatically appear when they clicked on Help then Windows Update.
So, to summarize - I *should* be concerned that there might be other
Service Packs and that the company that loaded the SBS is not
competent?

Hi,
Are you going to the Windows Update site or Microsoft Update?
You should be opening the Microsoft Update site to get updates for products
such as SQL and Exchange.

On the other hand, if they are running with the R2 technologies CD
installed, then the automatic updates client would be looking for the
information from the central Update Services location, only security and
critical updates would show up automatically, the rest would need to be
approved by an administrator for installation from the SBS Server
Management console, Update Services snap-in, Waiting for Review.

| A client has SBS 2003 Premium R2 installed.
| The SQL Server is 2000 version RTM.
|
| When we check for Windows Updates, service pack 4 for SQL 2000 *is not
| displayed*.
| That does not seem correct.
|
| Also, if the Windows Update is not functioning properly for SQL
| Server, should I also be concerned about Exchange, etc?
|
| TIA.
