Howdy,
Here is a list of all the switches for patches: (I got this info by using the
/? switch running a w2k3 server patch from a command line).
-u - Unattended mode
-f -Force other programs to close when the computer shuts down
-n - do not back up files for uninstall
-o - overwrite OEM files without prompting
-z - do not restart when the install is complete
-q - quiet mode (no user interaction)
-l - list installed hotfixes.
To do what you want write a batch file to call all the patches you wish to
install using the -z and -q switches for all of the packages except for the
last package, which you would just need to use the -q switch, then the system
will re-boot after installing the last patch.
HTH,
Mike

Thanks ken however, using this switch reboots the system after a patch
install. Is there a switch which simply cancels the reboot
I basically have about 15 patches to roll out and need to do this via script
without reboot after each patch
