These 2 will help you to check configuration settings (policy, users,
etc.)
  Intrusion.COM - Kane Security Analyst
  eEye - Retina (I haven't used this one)

For Vulnerabilities
  NAI - CyberCop Scanner
  ISS - Internet Scanner
  Plus a few others that I'll omit to keep the message short (if you
want others e-mail me personally)

For service Packs you can try the tool that MS published:
  http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q303/2/15.asp

Unfortunately an all-in-one is not always the best solution. Hope this
helps!
