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?

It so happens that just yesterday I stumbled across Spacewalk (http://spacewalk.redhat.com) - which is the open source version of RHN Satellite. I ran into a few problems setting the server up - but nothing too difficult to solve, and client installation is a breeze. Dan
