In this small article, I will show how to secure Windows 2000 to the maximum to use it e.g. in a vintage environtment, because the System is outdated and should not be used in a productive way. Because it is not possible to do this for every language, I try link to the english version of the files, otherwise they are the german pendants.

If you use the Windows 2000 with a service pack below Service Pack 4 (such as the original release), you will need to apply Service Pack 4: (file name: W2KSP4_EN.EXE: 129 MB) (NOTE: If you already have installed Windows 2000 with Service Pack 4 integrated, skip this step.)

How To Update W2K

COMPONENTS REQUIRED TO ACCESS WINDOWS UPDATE


We don't need to write this article step by step til the end. There is a compilated ISO with all the Updates to the last, because Windows Update Function doesn't work anymore. So if you have setup your VM with W2K, insert the ISO and install everything and you are good to go. The file you should look for is called: wsusoffline-w2k-deu_2010-07-11.iso
