Well, what you're REALLY looking for is "Red Carpet", or similar products, which provide patch management for Linux workstations in general. Red Carpet, at least, is not free though. http://www.novell.com/products/redcarpetenterprise/ Originally made by Ximian, now owned be Novell (who also own SuSE, btw).

Hi Rajiv,
thanks for sending this.
instead of the for loop, check out pdsh. you can use it to run commands such as:
pdsh -w box[1-n] 'wget http://path/to/rpm; rpm -I file.rpm'
This method of administration I'd like actually to avoid because I would have to keep track what I did myself. The ideal solution was if autoyast would offer something like ,,update'', so I can modify the control file and then just apply the changes. Some kind of ,,RemoteYaST''.
Cheers, Peter.
