RE: [ActiveDir] Latest MS patch KB899588

[Rick Kingslan]

Are you wondering if restarting the server is mandatory?  I suspect that it is, unless you really don’t want to be protected.  Often times, the components being replaced are only read on system startup.   Given that the bulletin specifically says:   Restart Requirement You must restart your system after you apply this security update.   I’d say, ummmm, yeah.   Rick   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ibarra, Juan Sent: Wednesday, August 17, 2005 5:15 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] Latest MS patch KB899588   Hi there, I am trying to apply this patch to some windows 2000 servers and I was wondering if the reboot is strictly mandatory?!  If I used the /norestart switch to ran it from the command line I do get the patch under add and remove programs. Also the version of the file gets updated under c:\winnt\ssystem32.   What do you think?   Juan
