Is there any way to get all of POST SP4 fixes to a CD so I could install them on my friends computer? He can't install them himself thru Windows Update cos he's still on DIAL UP:((
tguy Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 You can download all the patches to a central directory, ie: c:\temp. I normally rename them to a shorter name as listed below for the sake of simplicity.Next, you can download qchain.exe from Microsoft's website. Copy or move it to the same directory as the patches.Create a batch file using the below listed syntax and then burn off to CD. When complete all you will need to do is to put the cd in the cd-rom drive and run the batch file you created.Example: @echo offsetlocalset PATHTOFIXES=.\%PATHTOFIXES%\KB823182.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB823559.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB824105.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB825119.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB826232.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB828035.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB830352.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB837001.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB839643.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB839645.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB840315.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB841872.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB841873.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB842526.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB824146.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB828028.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB828741.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB828749.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\KB835732.EXE /Z /M%PATHTOFIXES%\QCHAIN.EXEECHO "Installation Complete"EXITNote: This list does includes most all of the patches released after service pack 4 was released but it is NOT a complete listing. I created this update CD in August of 2004. Any patches released since then are not included if that helps any.Good luck....tguy
5TEF Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 where to find ALL security hotfixes for W2K SP4 ?
FrankE9999 Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/current.aspx
5TEF Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 thanks...but does another website give update hotfixes ?
fdv Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 my own listhttp://www.vorck.com/wu.htmlyou'll have to paste some of the numbers because some links are not active. the page is based on creating a win2k cd using my files that installs without:Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, Internet Information Server, Internet Information Server Debugger, Imageviewer, MS FrontPage, Fax, Indexing Service, all games, Windows Scripting Host, COM, Distributed Transaction Coordinator, Web-Based Enterprise Management, Internet Connection Wizard, Task Scheduler, ActiveMovie for IE, MS Fake Java for IE, Windows Address Book, NetMeeting, Media Player 2.0 (the Codecs WILL STILL be installed, though), Application Compatability, Remote Storage Recall Notification, Windows Automatic Updates (use Daisy), and Color Profile.AFAIK it is comprehensive.(i have created a win2k cd that has post sp4 hotfixes in it already and uses one central INF file for ALL of the reg entries, but it is tailored for my IE-free win2k. anyway, i just add that to tell you that if you hack the right DLL files, you can replace the files in i386 with the hotfixed ones after extracting them and it will work.)FDV, keeper of the remove IE from win2k project
SiMoNsAyS Posted November 4, 2004 Posted November 4, 2004 my own listhttp://www.vorck.com/wu.htmlnice list, is there a similar one for win2k3?i found 1 with all the hotfixes but most of them aren't needed.
Bilou_Gateux Posted November 7, 2004 Posted November 7, 2004 for use with GreenMachine XPCreate nice project, i'm currently maintaining a 2K hotFix list for both English and French version.Windows 2K Security Updates
tguy Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 This just appeared at eWeek.com today. Here is an article on this topic.http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1732610,00.asp
BigDaddy Posted April 3, 2005 Author Posted April 3, 2005 So when will the Update Rollup be released?I am eager to know that, cos I want to burn it to Win2000 CD
dman Posted April 3, 2005 Posted April 3, 2005 As alternative to downloading/installing hotfixes manually you could try autopatcher.http://www.autopatcher.com/
bledd Posted April 3, 2005 Posted April 3, 2005 As alternative to downloading/installing hotfixes manually you could try autopatcher.http://www.autopatcher.com/<{POST_SNAPBACK}>was going to suggest this, it needs IE6SP1 installed (included) to run, I use it in work all the time
BigDaddy Posted April 4, 2005 Author Posted April 4, 2005 I must say that it is an interesting thing! But the latest version I could find is dated October '04.How come there are no newer builds?
