#3 Re: Question: Manage updates of more then one machine? Posted by Anonymous (209.149.xx.xx) on Thu 5 May 2005 at 01:52 Because I often manage a lot of machines in varied locations, I wrote up a little script to regularly check and notify me of updates. You can find this script here: http://chris.quietlife.net/tmp/check-apt.txt It depends on apt-listchanges (if you want to get the changes in the new packages). It downloads the new updates, e-mails you the changes, but *does not* install them (since I'm lazy, not insane). It still requires you to actually log in and do "apt-get upgrade" to actually install the packages.
