Mahalo Tom for your reply.  Question: How do I "tell cron to yum -y
upgrade every night"?  What program do I use to edit the cron?

Aloha All,
Im an new to the K12LTSP revolution but I am very familiar with VNC. I setup a mini K12LTSP lab in my library with thin clients running
out of eth1 and my internet connection out of eth0.  The problem I am
having is that I have to run down to the library to everytime I want
to do updates or just modify a few things on the K12LTSP server.  Is
there a way to setup VNC server on K12LTSP such that I can login from
my room and not have to run down to the library?  I can ping server's
eth0 port so I'm assuming that I can establish a  VNC connection.  Any
suggestions?

log in as root from the thin client - or, from any location you have
decent bandwidth to the server - or just ssh to the box.  as far as
updates alone - just tell cron to yum -y upgrade every night and you'll
get a report in your mail if the root's mail alias is set up right.

VNC is ok, but - i'm not sure - if they support display managers and
that would mean the console has to be logged in all the time and would
be a complete waste of resources.
