How about starting with installing service pack 2, then getting all necessary hot fixes? M$ makes a program called Hfnetchk that should be able to check the system to make sure it is up to patch "par".

Hi- I'm a unix / Mac guy. I agreed to set up a test installation of W2K Advanced Server because the M$ rep has always been nice. It's going to be in a DMZ so I'm not as scared as I would be, but my impression is that windows in general is full of holes out of box (at least from the number of command.exe's in my apache logs it would SEEM so), and I don't know where to start when it comes to windows security- Where is a site I can go to that lists all the updates / patches I need to get started. Any general advice? -mab --
