Getting latest win 2000 patches

[BertieBigBollox]

Got some machines on a closed network (no internet access). Currently
running SP4 + v2 rollup.

Is there any way to download all the up to date security and
recommended patches in one go rather than one at a time? I'll need to
download, stick them on CD or something and do it this way.

If you're up for it you could slipstream the updates into a whole, new
up-to-date install cd. I just did this to mine for the second time (the
first was 3 years ago) based on my ~2000 era install cd.

I used hfslip ... see http://www.hfslip.org/

If you don't feel up to doing the full slipstream, the same site has a
page with links (to Microsoft) to all the SP's, rollups and hotfixes for
Win2K (and IE etc) in one place so it's easy quick to download them.

Here is a brief description:

I use it since it comes out and it works like a charm.

Best regards
