[Box-Admins] Central management

[Tobias Pape]

Dear all

For easier management, I have now installed 
	apt-dater
on ian.
This eases the installation and maintenance of software updates on the hosts.

To use it for updates yourself (as, eg Levente or David have done in the past),
please add your user to the
	adm
group on all affected machines:

	for i in ian alan adele andreas dan ted david scott; do
		ssh -t $i.box.squeak.org "sudo adduser $YOURNAME adm"
	done

and then use

	apt-dater 

on ian.

The program needs a list of hosts to monitor.
Please put the following into the file
	.config/apt-dater/hosts.conf
in you home directory on ian:
===============
[Squeak.org]
Hosts=ian.box.squeak.org;alan.box.squeak.org;adele.box.squeak.org;andreas.box.squeak.org;dan.box.squeak.org;ted.box.squeak.org;david.box.squeak.org;scott.box.squeak.org;
==============


Attached a screenshot of how this looks.

Hope this helps.

Best regards
	-Tobias
