I did installation on a number of our developer servers and production staging servers. All seemed to go pretty well except for one server that ran into a metabase service problem. Once the reboot took affect, all seemed okay but will monitor the situation. That was one out of 10 servers that were updated with sp4

Yes - the same thing happened to my test servers. I can change the icon back via shortcut properties, but I haven't been able to figure out why they changed in the first place. The shortcuts still work, so I'm wondering if it's a glitch in the SP4 installer since it seems to affect only servers....

Subject: SP4 installation

Hi All,

I did install the sp4 on two workstations and two servers. All went okay except for one of the servers which is our PDC. Once the installation was finished and system rebooted most of my Admin Tools' such as AD users&computers, .. as well as all MS-Office icons and shortcuts where changed to the "unknown type" the one that looks like windows!

I must say clicking on these icons still runs the application. I tried uninstalling SP4, but to no avail!

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Hossein
