Hey folks. just curious what people are using for automating updates to Linux boxes?
Today, we manually do YUM updates to all the CentOS servers . just an example but a good one. I have heard there are some open source solutions similar to that of Red Hat Network?
We did create our own solution and are still expanding it. Currently we set what a server should look like at the servers, we want to change it to the central system. This would make it easier to deploy extra servers (only entering a MAC address, selecting software and starting a server should be enough to auto-deploy it). Our current solution is designed for Debian/Ubuntu, but should also work on other Linux distributions. A working copy might be available; please contact me offlist and I'll look what I can do. Kind regards, Mark
