Deploy Windows 2003 SP1 using SMS
So Windows Server 2003 SP1 shipped yesterday (my colleague John was on line most of the night so he could download the new SP1 bits whilst they were still warm). But the great thing about this is that we also shipped the SMS Package definition files, so you can quickly deploy SP1 without messing around creating the PDF's yourself. There's a kb article documenting how to deploy SP1 too.
And if you missed the hoo ha about SP1 for Windows Server, here are some links...
