I have recently upgraded to Windows Enterprise Server
2003 with clustering. Can I assume that updates listed
for Windows 2003 Server will be appropriate for the
enterprise edition? Several updates specifically mention
Advanced Server, Datacenter, etc, but not Enterprise
edition. I note that issues have been posted to this
newsgroup suggesting that updates have caused problems.
So I'm a bit nervous about blindly installing anything
that comes along - but then have the dilemma of
potentially compromised security if I don't apply them! I
have been unable to find recommendations on the MS
support site so any guidance would be appreciated.
