Hi Adam,
glad to be of service. I should think you'll be allright. Might depend a bit on how you installed geoserver. I'm asuming you did that with some kind of war file. So apt-get upgrade will upgrade things like java, apache and tomcat and leave geoserver alone. But again, these should be bugfixes and security updates. Not backwards incompatible updates. But don't run apt-get dist-upgrade!

Hi Koen, this is exceptionally helpful. Thanks! One more question: when it comes to GeoServer, Will running apt-get upgrade affect geoserver at all? I have set up the data directory outside of the default installation, and I see that there are a few different methods for doing this on ubuntu. Do you prefer one over the other?

I only know the very basics of using apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, and apt-get dist-upgrade. I don't want any of the Arches dependencies to be upgraded, but I do need to be able to get current security updates and make sure things keep running smoothly. I'll look into these suggestions http://askubuntu.com/questions/194/how-can-i-install-just-security-updates-from-the-command-line, but would be interested to know if anyone has experience with maintaining a server over a long period of time.
