Hi,

Did windows 2003 server SP1 up to date with all the security patches is more
secure than windows 2003 server without SP1 but up to date with all the
security patches?

If yes - What changes causing this?

Thanks,

Nir

Yes. Because of the security-related bug fixes included with the updates.

Yes.
Even if SP1 was only the sum of all pre-SP1 security patches,
the system with SP1 would be superior if only because of the
changes to the firewall
and (if one uses it as one should)
the Security Configuration Wizard
However, the even if is itself not true as there are more patches
in SP1 than just the pre-SP1 security patches
