We keep our boxes as "stock" as possible. We have not had an issue using yum to do any updates that would require being in front of the box. That is our experience.

My server has not yet been updated with all the goodies and is still a stock 4.2 installation. What is the consensus about remote updating? Would it be better if I were to physically be there and do it or are things stable enough that I could do it remotely and then reboot. It's kind of a PITA to have to go downtown to the C0-LO site, but can be done.
Thanks..
