Finsihing my server set up.. Yum-updatesd
This is on, via the chkconfig and seems to run a lot.
TO DO: auto update YUM for the computer once a day. Files: /etc/yum/yum-updatesd.conf Extra: send a mail or add to log file
This is the centos original file and my suggested changes. If anyone uses this, do you have something similar?
[main] # how often to check for new updates (in seconds) run_interval = 3600 (gonna change to 86400 for 24 hours)
# how often to allow checking on request (in seconds) updaterefresh = 600 (leave as is)
# how to send notifications (valid: dbus, email, syslog) emit_via = dbus (change to email, defaults to root I believe)
# should we listen via dbus to give out update information/check for # new updates dbus_listener = yes (assume no?)
# automatically install updates do_update = no (change to yes)
# automatically download updates do_download = no (change to yes)
# automatically download deps of updates do_download_deps = no (change to yes)
I am not sure about the dbus listener. The documentation, yum wiki, or the man pages were not telling me anything.
Thanks
