SMS 2.0 Service Pack 5 Beta

Well I [Bink] logged in to Betaplace (The MS betawebsite) today and noticed that a new program was added: SMS 2.0 sp5, must be because I'm a SMS 2003 betamember. By clicking on it I don't see any downloads survey or program info. But I found out more:

The major themes of SMS 2.0 SP5 are:

Improving SMS 2.0 security/Improving SMS 2.0 support for Microsoft Windows® Server 2003

As usual, this also includes a rollup of QFEs that were released after SMS 2.0 SP4

SP5 just went to beta

Will be released to manufacturer late first quarter

Subject to customer verification approval

Windows Server 2003 support

Better SMS 2003 interoperability
