I hit 400 our our desktops last night, here's what went out: ---------------------------- All Staff: In order to apply a critical update to our computers, a patch will be applied tonight at 7:00pm Pacific Time. It is critical that you log off after saving and closing all applications before 7:00pm tonight. Do not turn off your computer. Please contact the Service Desk with questions or concerns. I patched my other networks, and the only issues I saw was one 2K3 R2 server I had to restart the LogMeIn service, andother server (SBS 2K3) I had to go manually hit the power button because it didn't power up - looks unrelated but the NIC didn't want to maintain the IP it had been assigned.

Chaps, The update that was sent out last night, has that caused any issues elsewhere? We've had a spate of calls from users about problems today, several servers which were set to auto-update for various reasons have had varying levels of failure. It's mentally busy here for a Friday, and the one thing they have in common is that all the machine rebooted for an update last night. Is it just us ?
