I had a problem where after a restart, Mac users couldn't see the NT4
server. I tried various options, and in the end ran sp4 which seemed to
cure it.

However. . .

The sp4 download shoves 3 folders in your machine; the update can be found
in the update folder which is in the i386 folder (obvious! 8-<) If you
decide to go for the installation with rollback, you need much more free
space than the 80MB suggested; my first installation barfed about 80%
thru, and when I tried to rollback it said that it didn't have any space.
Aaargh! 1 consultant later. . . .

Thanks for those who made suggestions.
