Want to roll out sp2 rather than sp1 to the workstations?

Chad points to the new update that allows workstations to get sp2 rather than sp1 when they /connectcomputer to the server

And he points to the info you need to put the file on the server in the right place:

I cannot install this update, because a required component (C:\ClientApps\WXPSP2) is missing. According to KB Article 884032:

To prepare Windows Small Business Server 2003 to deploy Service Pack 2 to client computers running Windows XP Professional, follow the instructions in Knowledge Base article 884032 (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=34345).

But this links is dead... Are there any speacial requirements preparing for SP2?

You need to create the wxpsp2 directory and extract the SP2 files into it before running the update.
