Re: SBS 2003 Windows Update Question

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Just to interject... I deployed SBS 2003 Release 2 a few weeks ago,
and it included SQL 2005, not SQL 2000.

So the Premium Technologies disc included ISA 2004 and SQL 2005, even
before the R2 Technologies disc was applied. Is there a variation of
R2 that did not come with SQL 2005?

WSUS - the patch management engine.

If this person has an RTM version of SBS, yes they should have SP1 on it
but many firms do not keep up on service packs in general. SBSers are
not unique in this.

There is a 5 part service pack for SBS that makes up sp1 and the last
part includes SQL 2000 sp4.

WSUSable? That acronymn is not registering ... sorry :(.
So, you are saying that SBS 2003 sp1 is supposed to be installed with
the Premium Edition or not?
Again, sorry for my confusion.

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.
