    Note: After installation at a server, the server will need to be rebooted for the hotfix to be applied fully.

    Note: After installation at a server, the server will need to be rebooted for the hotfix to be applied fully.

  7. When all Community Connect 3 servers have had the hotfix applied and have been restarted, then restart all your Community Connect 3 workstations for the hotfix to be applied to them. When restarted, workstations will install the packages listed below. The workstations will perform several automated restarts to complete this process.

    • Messenger Service Hotfix KB828035 (client)

Additional Information

Critical hotfix for Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server

HFXCC3052 includes MS03-046, Exchange Server 2000 SP3 Hotfix KB829436, but does not install this hotfix automatically.

Note: If you are running one or more Exchange 2000 Servers you should apply this hotfix now.

Your Exchange 2000 Server needs to be running Exchange 2000 Server, Service Pack 3 to install this hotfix. Exchange 2000 Servers shipped by RM for Community Connect 3 already include this.

Follow this procedure to install the hotfix on your Exchange 2000 server(s). Ensure that HFXCC3052 has already been installed and the server has since been rebooted.

Note: No further reboot is required provided all applications are closed before installation (including applications opened via a terminal server session). However, the security patch will restart the IIS, SMTP, and the Exchange Server Information Store Service, so you should plan to install this hotfix at a convenient time to minimise the impact on users.

  1. Log on to the Community Connect 3 Exchange 2000 server, which already has HFXCC3052 applied, as an administrator.
  2. Browse to D:\RMNetwork\RMManage\RM Hotfixes\HFXCC3052_extracted\Utilities\Exchange Server 2000 SP3 Hotfix KB829436.
  3. Double click on the Exchange2000-KB829436-x86-enu.exe file.
  4. At the Setup Wizard screen, choose Next.
  5. Accept the License Agreement, then choose Next.
  6. If an 829436 Setup window appears, choose Continue to acknowledge that the hotfix will need to stop and restart services.
  7. The hotfix will install automatically. When prompted, choose Finish.
  8. Repeat this procedure for all your Community Connect 3 Exchange 2000 servers.
