SQL Server 2005 SP2 Cumulative Hotfix Package 5 - Announced

We are in the process of gradually upgrading our servers to CU4 now (build 3200) and here is the next announcement .

SQL Server 2005 SP2 Cumulative Hotfix Package 3

Keep an eye out for KB939537 which will be the next cumulative hotfix package for SQL Server 2005 SP2. Unfortunately the fix itself is not yet available for download. Any guesses on the build number? I'm going for 3193 :-) *EDIT* It is build 3186 so I was pretty close but too pessimistic ;-)

Even more USERSTORE_TOKENPERM

When we ran into our USERSTORE_TOKENPERM issue last year there was no real awareness of the problem yet (SQL Server 2005 x64 - Enterprise Edition Build 2153).
