Hi All,

Does Ubuntu can / support update automatically like Windows Update does ?

it is simply because I'd like to standardize my Ubuntu server installation across the datacenter to be exactly the same (latest) rather than having multiple minor version.

Or is it possible to script / cronjob upgrade Ubuntu 10.0.4 into 10.10 using apt-get command by checking to the repo ?

Thanks,

AWT

There is no major and minor version in Ubuntu. The number refers to year and month of the release.

Are you sure that you want to let Ubuntu decide when to upgrade? I would pay close attention to the debate in these fora before deciding whether or not.
