Hello List,
I am getting familar with CentOS and using Rel 4.6. My goal is to get a automated update *(email)* of system updates.
I found the link below in the WIKI. Additionally I have enable "yum" to run as a service int 345 and started it.
yum update from the command line works fine-
There are three scripts indicated on the web link below :
http://wiki.centos.org/YumCheckOrInstallUpdates
usr/bin/yum-check ( not on the machine)
/etc/cron.daily/yum.cron: ( not on the machine)
there a is file named yum.cron at this location-
[root at bmc-4 cron.daily]# cat yum.cron
#!/bin/sh
if [ -f /var/lock/subsys/yum ]; then
/usr/bin/yum -R 120 -e 0 -d 0 -y update yum
/usr/bin/yum -R 10 -e 0 -d 0 -y shell /etc/yum/yum-daily.yum
fi
etc/sysconfig/yum-check: (not on the machine)
I am not sure what to do with the information provided. Can others point me in a direction please..
The documentation is not clear.
Thanks,
Stephen
