I'm seeing this on at least two 2003 servers (I've only checked two) that do NOT yet have MS14-068 installed but do have MS14-066 (initial release). We deploy via WSUS so the 14-068 patches are downloaded and ready to install, but I can't successfully run MU or WU from either server. I get the

Re: [NTSysADM] MS14-066 - secure channel vulnerability

Well, TMG is Windows, right? Personally, out of an abundance of caution, I would assume the TMG server itself is also vulnerable until patched. And even when it is patched, the underlying web server would need to be patched as well unless TMG inspects encrypted traffic and has a valid signature

Here's a portion of a Powershell script I use for a daily disk space report that will get you going. I have all my servers nested in a Servers OU so this will work. It won't work as is if your AD structure is different. There are probably tons of optimizations that could be made, but this works
