A server running Windows NT 4. 0 operating system has developed a security problem. When you check the system information,you find that it is running with Service Pack 1,which was included with the OS release. You check with your supervisor,who gives you several CD-ROMs that contain different service packs. Which one should you install?

A. Service Pack 2,since it follows Service Pack 1,which is already installed B. Service Pack 4,since this pack is known to address some security issues C. The latest service pack,since it contains all previous service packs D. Install all service packs one by one.

B. The latest service pack,since it contains all previous service packs. The latest service pack typically contains all the previous service packs. For example,Service Pack 7 for Windows NT 4. 0 contains all software that was contained in Service Pack 1 through Service Pack 6; Service Pack 6 contains all the software contained in Service Pack 1 through Service Pack 5.

A is incorrect because you should choose the latest service pack. C is incorrect because if a later service pack is available,a previous service pack should not be installed. D is incorrect because you need to install only the latest service pack,since it contains all previous service packs.
