Note: HFXCC3174 may not contain all the Security Updates released by Microsoft� in November 2006. Please read the More Information section below for further details. 

The Updates provided in HFXCC3174 supersedes a previously-released Microsoft� Security Update; as such, the following Community Connect 3 workstation packages will be removed from networks (if it is present) during this Security Update's installation:

• Windows XP Security Update KB890046;
• IE6 SP2 Cumulative Security Update KB918899;
•  Windows XP Security Update KB899589.

If you are running a Community Connect 3 network, you should apply this Security Update without delay.

HFXCC3174 should be applied to all Community Connect 3 servers including all domain controllers and all Member Servers (such as DAMMS and MIS servers, or servers running Microsoft� Exchange). It does not need to be applied to Community Connect 3 workstations directly, but all servers and workstations will need to be restarted for the Microsoft� Security Updates to be applied fully.

1. Click the HFXCC3174.exe file link below to download the Security Update.
2. Choose to Save the file, browse to the temporary location you wish to save it to (for example D:\temp) and click Save.
3. When it has downloaded, follow the Installation Instructions below to install the Security Update.

Important: During the installation of HFXCC3174, the Station Manager HealthCheck and the allocation of new Microsoft� Security Update packages must be done manually. Please ensure that you fully complete all steps in the Installation Instructions. If you previously started to install the Security Update but cancelled the operation, follow the installation instructions in the 'Installing after cancelling a previous install' section below.

1. Download HFXCC3174.
2. Log on to your first Community Connect 3 domain controller as Administrator (not SystemAdmin) and copy the Security Update to a temporary location (for example D:\temp).
3. Run the Security Update by double-clicking the self-extracting executable file (HFXCC3174.exe). The Security Update will extract files automatically and run the RM Installation Assistant to begin the installation.
4. When prompted, click Continue.
5. The installation will proceed automatically. When prompted that the RM Installation Assistant has finished, click Finish.

Note: After installation at a server, the server will need to be rebooted for the Microsoft� Security Updates to be applied fully. Ensure the server has rebooted successfully before continuing.

6. Repeat steps 2-5 at all your other Community Connect 3 domain controllers.
7. Repeat steps 2-5 at any Member Servers (eg DAMMS or MIS servers) on the network.

Note: After installation at a server, the server will need to be rebooted for the Microsoft� Security Updates to be applied fully. It is recommended that you ensure each domain controller has rebooted successfully before applying the Software Update to the next server.

8. When all Community Connect 3 domain controllers have had HFXCC3174 applied, log in to the first Community Connect 3 domain controller server in each site as the Administrator user (not SystemAdmin). Run Windows� Explorer� and browse to D:\RMNetwork\RMManage\Station Manager. Double-click on the file Healthcheck.exe, and select OK to start the health check, and OK again when it is complete.
9. HFXCC3174 provides new workstation packages but does not automatically allocate them. You should allocate these new packages to your workstations at your earliest convenience. Note: If you choose to allocate the packages at a later time, you must still complete all of steps 1 to 8 above now, including running the Station Manager health check.
   
   The new Security Packages are listed as available packages as follows in the RM Management Console:
   
   System packages

• Windows XP SP2 Security Update KB924270
• Windows XP SP2 Security Update KB923980
• Windows XP SP2 Security Update KB923789
• Windows XP SP2 Security Update KB922760
• Windows XP SP2 Security Update KB920213

Note: Update KB923789 should only be allocated to workstations which are running Macromedia� Flash� player 6, as this is the only affected version of this product. If Macromedia Flash player version 7 or above is allocated and installed on your workstations, this security update may fail to install, or may cause problems with applications which use Macromedia Flash.

Once you have allocated the packages to workstations, restart the workstations for the Microsoft� Security Update to be installed.

1. Browse to D:\RMNetwork\RMManage\RM Hotfixes\HFXCC3174_extracted and double-click the file RM Installation Assistant.exe. Note: If this folder or its contents does not exist, re-run the HFXCC3174.exe file downloaded from the RM Support Web site as in step 1 of the Installation Instructions section above.
2. Follow the procedures from step 4 in the Installation Instructions section above.

The components of HFXCC3174 are included in RM Service Release 6 for Community Connect 3.

The Security Update can be installed on to networks running Community Connect 3 with Service Release 4 or above, and HFXCC3110B or equivalent.

HFXCC3174 is not included in Service Release 4 or 5. It will not need to be re-applied if originally installed before Service Release 5 is installed.

Note: The application software updates will need to be re-applied if the related Microsoft� application is installed or re-installed after the software updates were applied.
