That sounds logical on the surface, but it's a little like asking Ford to
keep track of the updates to the Clarion radios they buy for their trucks.
As far as NT4, you'll notice that the Code Red vulnerability patch came in
two flavors; W2K and NT4.  It stands to reason that the hotfix checker would
too.

I used HFCHECK Hotfix Check Script 1.00  from MS to check patches on all W2K
IIS 5.0 servers. Some of the ES servers running Datacenter on them and I got
the patch from the Vendor. But when I run the utility on them it doesn't
show the latest patch applied on them. Is it because the patch is from OEM.
Well I thought atleast it should recognize it as its the same OS from MS.
Secondly the patch is not for NT4.0 OS so how do you check on these servers.

Thanks.
