MS patch scanner for Win2K/NT, IIS, SQL
Register | at | by Mike
MS has released a command-line application, HFNetChk, which will scan all NT and/or 2K machines in a network from a single location and compare their currently-installed patches with the latest ones available, making it easy for admins to identify and patch vulnerable machines. We gave it a whirl over the weekend and it performed as advertised. It covers Win-NT and 2K; IIS 4.0 and 5.0; SQL Server 7.0 and 2000 (including MS Data Engine); and Internet Explorer 5.01 and later.
