Slightly thin client related as I'm building a Citrix server...
1. Have installed win2k
2. started to install the win2k adminpak.msi (win2k admin tools thingy)
3. adminpak.msi asks for win2k sp3
4. I insert the win2k cd i installed from in the firstplace (which includes
SP3)!
5. the machine complains that I have not inserted SP3
6. so, I create new SP3 CD and insert
7. goto 5.
The win2k SP3 comes as a self extracting executable, which one of my
collegues extracted into a subdir on a CD... what is probably happening is
that the adminpak.msi is expecting to see the SP3 files in a specific
directory? \i386 I guess... the adminpak.msi does not allow you to browse
the cd to find the appropriate files...
how annoying is that? does anyone care? oh well, did you guys watch
schumacher bosch Monza last night? nice weather were having for this time
of year...etc
