Title: AutoUpdate Feature
Post by: Derek Godfrey on August 09, 2001, 10:01:24 AM
I don't know if this has been suggested yet, but how about adding an AutoUpdate feature that will scan for rpm versions and download and install updates automatically.  This would be done in a fashion similar to "Windows Update" or the Auto Update feature in Mandrake Linux.

Thanks,

Derek Godfrey

Most admins *don't* auto update servers. Good ones have a test machine on the side that they test before-hand. Windows or Linux it's that same.

With the new update feature of Ver 5.0 most of your worries should be fixed by  routine checking of the Blades page of the e-smith manager
