I noticed that the original post referenced a MS patch. If you are working with security patches it's well worth the effort to set up WSUS on a 2003 server. It's free, and it's a great MS patch management solution.

I do realize that this is a KiX board, but why reinvent the wheel? That is, if there's already a free wheel that does what you need! I apologize if this is way off of what you are looking for...
