Did ya know??

Part One

Due to a buffer overflow attack exploit discovered recently, as well as 
good admin practices, you might have disabled the Print Spooler Service. 
Well you can't install SP2 with Print Spool disabled. The Print Spooler 
Service at least has to be configured to Manual for SP2 to install.

Part Two

When you are installing a new PC into the Win2K Active Directory/Domain, 
make sure your PC's clock is set correctly. After you have "pushed" the PC 
into the domain if the clock is showing the wrong date, upon reboot you 
will not be able to log into the domain. It will fail with lots of nasty 
errors.
