When I do an MSDN login, I only have access to the initial Vista Beta 2
build. Several people in threads here say the latest MSDN build is 5456.
What is the MSDN subscriber link to get the latest Vista Beta 2 build?

Just a small criticism for Microsoft: the filename for the ISO should
contain the build number. It sure makes it easier to identify what you
are downloading, and what you are working with once it is on disk.
 
If you can log in then you must have a subscription ot MSDN... that said
even MSDN subs don't get all the inhouse tech builds and the ones they do
get can take days/weeks to get after the inhouse gets them.
 
You better contact the concierge to see if interim builds are even available
on MSDN.
 
I don't believe the interim builds are available to MSDN. The one guy that I
remember who mentioned the interim build and MSDN was the "super tester" who
decided that he was the worlds best beta tester and MSDN and members of the
techbeta were just rich and priviledged people who would not actively test
but just sit and wait for the "free" final version...

I did contact the concierge. Slightly less than useless unfortunately. I
guess we aren't on the priviliged list and will see the build later when it
goes to a wider MSDN audience.
 
And some of the TAP's. In fact they get selective builds according to their
technologies.

Us MSDN Subscriber's do NOT get Windows Vista Build 5456, just FYI (because,
it is NOT a CTP Build, also just FYI). The only extra thing we get is 1
free Windows Vista Beta 2 X86 DVD, which is included in your MSDN July 2006
Monthly Mail Shipment.
