GPO - Install XP SP2

[Guest]

Dear all,

I would like to deploy Windows XP SP2 through GPO. However, I've 5-10
computers which have XP SP2 installed. Is GPO smart enough to distinguish
those PC have XP SP2 installed and those pc which are not yet update with XP
SP2?
If yes, how do i configure in my GPO?

Thanks.

If you have Windows Server 2003 you can use a WMI filter to miss out the PCs
that already have SP2 applied. If you have Windows 2000, you could put the
PCs that already have it in a new security group and assign this group the
'Deny Apply Group Policy' permission.
