Is there a way to create an answer file for the DST update (KB931836) for XP?
We have created an autorun script to run when the cd is placed in the tray,
but we still have to click next and then accept the license agreement. We do
not have SMS or WSUS installed/configured as of yet so we have to do it the
old fashioned way. Any ideas?

i think either pcworld or eweek had
a story on dst and how microsoft was
going to charge 4 grand for the patch.

however, i also recall reading some
feedback by other readers who knew
of a work around or scripts to update
dst without any costs..

since the issue of dst doesn't affect, i
didn't research the alternatives. But
this is probably the clue you are seeking...

That is $4,000 for any version of Windows that is not XP, 2003 or
Vista.
