RE: Patches after SP4 for Exchange 5.5
Generally MS advice is to not put on HotFixes unless they fix a particular problem that you have as Jim said. Reading between the lines this means We have attempted to fix a specific problem with this fix but have not been able to test it fully enough to ascertain whether it will cause other problems Kevin -Original Message- From: Randal, Phil [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 03 April 2002 09:48 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Patches after SP4 for Exchange 5.5 Seeing how Microsoft's patches often fix issues which Microsoft chooses not to document, this argument is a bit lame.

RE: Patches after SP4 for Exchange 5.5
Hi William, Just check abt the patch Q304062. I install this patch because Microsoft list this under their security site as one of the security patch. I take it from Microsoft all security patches need to be patched. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms01-041.asp Also under the article it is stated that this will be part of SP5 in future release, in fact a registry key is created HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates\Exchange Server 5.5\SP5\Q304062 Just wonder is Microsoft going to release SP5 for Exchange 5.5?

RE: Patches
I have tested both St. Bernard Update EXPERT and a product named Service Pack Manager by Gravity Storm Software http://home.san.rr.com/gravitystorm/ http://home.san.rr.com/gravitystorm/ . I liked them both but Update Expert supported updating hotfixes and service packs on more software. Mr. Baker has a link you might want to take a look at. http://www.ultratech-llc.com/KB/?File=SPackMgr.TXT http://www.ultratech-llc.com/KB/?File=SPackMgr.TXT Mark -Original Message- From: Clark, Steve [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, September 01, 2001 11:17 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Patches Does anyone have any experience with St Bernard for staying up with patches - is there another product that you would recommend?

RE: Patches
Thanks Mark. I really don't want to have to pay but I'm finding it extremely difficult to stay up on updates for all the networks and individual PC's in the many offices I manage. Seems that UpdateExpert will allow me to install on a laptop and travel to each office to run the queries. Thanks again for the response.
