Protoze mne nebavilo se kazdy den prihlasovat na svuj domaci server s Debianem a kontrolovat nove aktualizace, hledal jsem neco na zautomatizovani tohoto nudneho ukonu. Velmi se mi osvedcil program apticron.

Sam od sebe nic neinstaluje – zustava mi plna kontrola. V pripade dostupnych aktualizaci zasle e-mail na nastavenou adresu. V nem je nazev a IP adresa pocitace, pro ktery jsou aktualiace k dispozici, dale pak samotny seznam balicku a popis ke zmenam kazdeho. Nakonec je uveden prikaz, kterym se provede aktualizace.

Instalace se provede prikazem apt-get install apticron
jednoduche nastaveni se nachazi v souboru /etc/apticron/apticron.conf
Samozrejme musi fungovat posilani e-mailu z daneho PC – ja pouzivam postfix.

Takhle nejak vypada e-mail od apticronu:
