Sp4 isnt as bad as everyone makes out...

we have it on 2000 AD dc's, exchange 2000 servers and clusters, file and print 
servers / clusters . DNS, DHCP, infact most of our domain is either 2000 sp4 or 
2003 already.

my citrix servers have remained at 2000 SP3 but we have just finidhed our 2003 
images ready to go on the 29 servers

Is your customer running SP4 on the domain controllers as well?

Subject: [THIN] Windows2000 sp4 issue

Hi,

I ran into an issue today that I'm pretty sure has been faced before by 
any one of you guys. I searched through some archive but couldn't 
really find what I'm looking for.... One of my customers reinstalled 
his terminal server (no citrix) himself, wanted to save some money....I 
guess...

He ended up calling me that the policies weren't applying anymore on 
that server. I noticed that he had Windows2000 SP4 installed on the 
server.

I've tried sp4 once before on a life set and ended up with a dead 
exchange server so I'm keeping my servers far from sp4 these days... 
Has anyone had any previous experience with the issue presented, the 
policies not being applied on the targeting server? Any help or 
suggestion is very much appreciated.

Met vriendelijke groeten / With kind regards
