Installing hotfixes for Windows 2000 Pro



Hello everybody,

I have done a fresh installation of Windows 2000 Pro. I have downloaded
and installed SP4 as well.
However, no hotfixes or update rollup have yet been installed on the
machine.

This is a standalone machine and I have to download hotfixes on another
machine and then take them to
the windows machine {I think this can be done?}

I have a couple of questions if somebody minds answering:

1- Do I need to install all post SP4 hotfixes even if I install update
rollup 1 v2?

2- If no where can I get the list of hotfixes post update rollup?

3- Moreover, from the list of post SP4 hotfixes that I found on the
link below:

http://support.microsoft.com/common/canned.aspx?R=d&H=Microsoft+Windows+2000+Post-SP4+Fixes&LL=&Sz=kbWin2000preSP5fix&Fr=&DU=&SD=GN&LN=EN-US&CND=1&VR=&CAT=&VRL=&SG=&MaxResults=250

it seems that not all hotfixes are for Windows 2000 Pro. Some are for
advanced servers alone.
Is there a list that gives hotfixes for only Windows 2000 professional
edition.

Many thanks in advance.

A.
