After installing Service for Macintosh on my Small Business Server, we are ask to reinstall winnt service pack 6. After winnt SP6 extracts the installation file it can't continue the installation due to the ff: "Service Pack setup cannot open or modify your setup.log file". Please we need recommendation & suggestions ASAP. Thanks.

Hi,
Check setup.log is present in winnt\repair folder.
If not create one , create a new Setup.log file in the Repair folder, and add the following lines:

[Files.WinNt]
\%Systemroot%\System32\Hal.dll = "hal.dll","d023"

[Paths]
TargetDirectory = "\%Systemroot%"

(assuming you are using intel based standard machine.)
where %Systemroot% is the directory where NT is installed.

Cheers
