[re: kb885835 & kb885250]

If you are using this method, KB885835 must be integrated before KB885250, otherwise you will end up with Mrxsmb.sys version 5.1.2600.2541 and effectively the issues addressed by KB885250 will not be fixed.

Also it is not necessary to copy out any files from /svcpacks/ merely open up HFINT.DAT after integrating KB885835 and change the filename mrxsmb.sys to something else before integrating KB885250, then change it back to its original name after integrating KB885250 as the following example shows:

Integrate KB885835

In HFINT.DAT change:

[KB885835]
mrxsmb.sys
lsasrv.dll
rdbss.sys

to:

[KB885835]
mrxsmb.sys.tmp
lsasrv.dll
rdbss.sys

Integrate KB885250.

Then change:

[KB885835]
mrxsmb.sys.tmp
lsasrv.dll
rdbss.sys

back to:

[KB885835]
mrxsmb.sys
lsasrv.dll
rdbss.sys

This type of workaround should work, however it would be nice if Microsoft would address the issue properly.

My idea:

Integrate KB885835

In HFINT.DAT change:

[KB885835]
mrxsmb.sys
lsasrv.dll
rdbss.sys

to:

[KB885835]
lsasrv.dll
rdbss.sys

Integrate KB885250.

That's all . Beter or no?

You will need a hex editor to perform these hex edits.
