RE: Installing IIS Patches

[Joe McLain]

"hotfix.exe -z" where hotfix.exe is the name of your patch. You can run "hotfix.exe /?" for a list of switches. Qchain.exe is referenced in KB article Q296861 (http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q296/8/61.ASP). Qfecheck.exe is referenced in KB article Q282784 (http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q282/7/84.ASP).   When installing multiple hotfixes I normally create a batch file that looks something like this: ********** SETLOCAL SET HotFixFolder=c:\files\hotfixes\   %HotFixFolder%\q123456.exe -z -m %HotFixFolder%\q123987.exe -z -m %HotFixFolder%\q987654.exe -z -m %HotFixFolder%\qchain.exe logfile.txt   ENDLOCAL **********   If you want, you can run qfecheck.exe to verify the installation.   Cheers -   Joe. -----Original Message----- From: Greenhalgh, Tim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 24, 2001 7:19 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Installing IIS Patches Dear All,   Is there an easy way to install all the IIS patches in one step?  I don't restart the server between each patch but it's a real pain installing several patches at once.  There must be an easier way.   Thanks in advance,   Tim Want to unsub?
