Hi,
We've applied this on NT4 and W2K servers running 81745 with no Oracle issues. However, have seen 1 anomaly after this patch: nbtstat against a remote server no longer shows the logged on user name. This may have been a security improvement by design. Note you can still use the freeware psloggedon to see who is logged on to a server (may require admin privs on the target). Regards,
Bruce Reardon

We're patching like crazy, too. So far, none of our systems has experienced any issues. We're running mostly 8 and 8i, with a couple 9i machines in there too, on NT4 and Win2k.

Cheers,
Mike

Has anybody applied Windows2000-KB823980-x86-ENU on their boxes hosting the Database? We are running 9i 9.0.1.1.1 on an Windows 2000 advanced server and our network group is patching all the systems. Is there anything that I need to watch for? We are also runing 9iAS ver 1.0.2.2.0 on Windows 200 advanced server, anything to be aware here? Any information is very welcomed.
TIA
Luis Octavio de Urioste
