    It tried Google, but couldn't find a place to download it from.
    I found references to NT 4.0 Resource Kit that needs to be ordered ($$).

    If you know specific network location to download SHOWGRPS from, please let
    me know.

    TIA

    You don't need SMS. DOwnload the pack and extract it with the /x option. It
    will extract it to a directory of your choice.

    I don't email executables or files, sorry.

    Tried it, but it won't uppack.

    In other words, I downloaded it and from the dos window typed "sms20sp2i
    /x", but it does not unpack.

    Have you tried it ?

    No, I haven't, sorry. It's been awhile since I last used SMS. But what I can
    tell you is if you run it, even though you don't have SMS, it will still
    extract it to a temp folder.

    SMS: How to Obtain and Install Systems Management Server 2.0 Service Pack 2


    The following is quoted from the above article.

    "The file is unzipped to the %Temp% folder. By default, this is the c:\temp
    folder. A message stating that the unzip was successful is generated, and
    the Service Pack Setup Wizard then starts."

    When it start and give you an error saying it's not installed, don't hit ok
    or Close, rather go the folder where it extracted it, and look for the
    support.exe file. Copy that elsewhere. Don't hit Close just yet. Try to
    install that file. The showgrps should be part of it.
