We are looking at using UpdateExpert from St Bernard Systems to roll out MS hotfixes. According to the vendor they will also be able to do Unix updates by the end of this year.

Subject: Sysadmins and Security
Patches
18/05/2002 05:09
Hi all,
I would like to get a feel for how other shops handle this issue. I am a
security admin responsible for keeping about 140 servers, Unix and NT, up
to
date with security patches and hotfixes. This isn't my only responsibility
and I'd like to get the sys admins more involved in keeping their servers
patched. I love my job - but more stuff keeps landing on my plate. How is
this best handled? Is it reasonable to expect sysadmins to install
security
patches? Thx
