Thanks for giving that point, i will look at this

at first, it would be a great benefit if this would be documented
anywhere ;)

neither the manpage nor /usr/share/doc/apt-dater says anything about
"Type"

Hi,

when i want to manage my local machine with apt-dater i have to setup
an local sshd, an update-user, sudo and the sudoers file

However, i think it would be a nice feature if there would be a
feature, that i can just add a local aptitude host, which bypasses ssh.
Some users don't have an sshd on their working machines for security
reasons.


you might write your own command handler and use the "Type" 
configuration statement in a host group:



[My Local Host Group]
Type=no-ssh
Hosts=localhost


The default command handler (/usr/lib/apt-dater/cmd) will launch the 
no-ssh command handler (defaults to /etc/apt-dater/plugins/no-ssh/cmd). 
Use the default command handler as a template and drop the ssh stuff.


We are aware that the config/host file format is not flexible enough 
(you can only have one Type per group) - an upcoming version of 
apt-dater will improve the format.



HTH,
Thomas


Kind Regards,
Michael
