Red Hat Network Software Manager
Red Hat Linux and Red Hat Network are integrated so that customers can
take advantage of management tools quickly and economically, without
the overhead of traditional systems management infrastructure.
Keeping your Red Hat Linux system updated and secure is quick and easy
with Red Hat Network Software Manager.
Each registered system has a system profile that contains hardware and
software information about the system. Software Manager uses this
information to provide you with customised Errata Alerts relevant to your
systems.
RPM package updates can be downloaded to the client system with the Red
Hat Update Agent or automatically and securely installed via the web.
Red Hat Network currently supports all RPM packages installed from the
Red Hat Linux CD, Red Hat PowerTools CD, and the Red Hat Linux
Applications CD.
