Aply Service pack 2 for Windows Server 2003, again, and again?

[Guest just bob]

Going back to the Windows NT days, we used to run Service pack install again

anytime you install a windows component.

 

So if I install server 2003 R2 and download and install all critical

updates, and later decide I need to install terminal services or other

windows components/applications, should I run Service Pack 2 again and then

critical updates again? I guess it couldn't hurt but I would like to know if

that is still necessary or did the service pack replace all the component

install files which have been changed? Seems the latter is not possible but

I am not sure.

 

Thanks!

Hello just,

 

No, during installation of new features or roles, it will directly ask for

the needed SP or installation disk.
