Hi folks,
Just found this out a little while ago and thought it would be a "good"
thing to let you know. If you don't already...
NT4 SP4 is now available from MS, either via ftp:
198.105.232.37 /fixes/usa/nt40 (this is the fastest MS download on
the west coast.)
Via website URL:
http://www.microsoft.com/NTWorkstation/default.asp
http://www.microsoft.com/ntserver/nts/default.asp
It's huge, so be prepared...minimum size is 35+ Mb, y2k entitled is 76+
Mb.
This is not a typical upgrade...in essence, SP4 replaces the old NT4
System Architecture with the NT5b1 System Architecture. Whether it
includes a complete implementation of DirectX 5 is still a mystery. MS
makes no reference to it in their Readme.txt file (available from the ftp site).
This is both a Server and Workstation replacement pack.
Peace,
