On 9th.Sept.2000, Justin Lintz asked :
Since your on the topic of not being able to download patches, I still
have
not been able to download the IIS Hotfix checking tool, all i get is 404 errors. Anyone experiencing the same?
Yes, we are. I actually emailed this to Bugtraq (unapproved, so didn't appear) and to Microsoft themselves (<secure () microsoft com>), on Monday 4th.Sept.2000 :
we've just released a new tool that will help administrators ensure that their servers are up to date on all IIS 5.0 security patches. The tool, called HFCheck, is available for download at http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/tools.asp.A) Unfortunately, I see the web page, but on clicking the download link :-
HTTP Error 404 404 Not Found
[...]
B) Can we have a version of this tool for IIS 4.0 please ?
and later that day Microsoft replied to me :
Thanks for your email. We are aware of the broken link and have asked our web team to correct the page. Due to the US holiday - this may not occur until sometime on Tuesday. Once we have received feedback from this version (IIS4), we will look to incorporate the feedback into this tool (or similar) for IIS4 and other applications.
(PS: I took "feedback from this version (IIS4)" to mean "... (IIS5)" in that last paragraph) Nick EDS Healthcare, Bristol, UK
