Hi,
Can anybody please help, I have an update which is deployed via WSUS, and has also been attempted manually KB956744 but it fails on 3 test servers so far.
The update is not already installed. The mstscax.dll version is 6.0.6001.18564
The log file is shown below:

Hi Andy,
Thanks for posting in Microsoft TechNet forums.
As we can see, this update failed to be installed due to these two errors:
FileVersion of C:\WINDOWS\system32\mstscax.dll is Greater or Equal To 6.0.6000.0
FileVersion of C:\WINDOWS\system32\mstscax.dll is Greater Than 6.0.6001.0
Please understand that this update (KB956744) is for Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 system.
The security issue fixed by this update has already been fixed in Windows Server 2003 R2 and thus it is not needed in Windows Server 2003 R2 (also cannot be installed).
Have a nice day.
