Well that's what apt-get update;apt-get upgrade is good for. If there is no updated version on http://security.debian.org/ (and apt-get upgrade doesn't work because of this) there is no point in having a script which downloads something that does not exist. Just be sure to run apt-get update;apt-get -s upgrade with cron each few hours, and mail root if there are any updates. -- Matthias Hentges [www.hentges.net] -> PGP + HTML are welcome ICQ: 97 26 97 4 -> No files, no URLs My OS: Debian Woody: Geek by Nature, Linux by Choice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
