Just installed SBS2k SP1a.

W2K users got asked at logon if they wanted to install SP4.

How can I prevent them being asked that?

thanks.

Are you saying you do not want your users to have SP-4? I recommend you
allow it to be installed on the workstations unless you have an unknown
reason.

:-).

Another way to put it .... once they have installed sp4 they won't get asked
any more.

I really just like to not have users making important decisions like that.
When SP4 first came out, stories abounded that _some_ software was breaking.
If I want it installed, I'll do it. If I have good confidence in a SP, I
will say no to archiving files to avoid that time and space on the disk.

thanks.
Roger.
