Shouldn't SP2 for Server 2008 be showing up in Windows Update now? I can't quite figure out why, but when I check for updates on some of my Server 2008 machines WU offers SP2 as an option, but it doesn't offer it for some others. I can't seem to figure out the pattern, though... John

We're not using WSUS, though--well, at least not for patching servers. All of my servers go straight to MS through Windows Update to check for updates. WU as showing some servers as needing SP2, and others as not. I know I can use the standalone installer, but that shouldn't be necessary...

I've seen that if you have previous patches not applied yet, you have to either apply them or hide them from showing up. Then SP2 becomes available as an option to install. *** John C. Kelsey DuBois Regional Medical Center (: 814.375.3073 *: jckel...@drmc.org
