Doesn't make much difference, since it's a shell script that I wrote
( you don't have it  :p  ) that uses ssh to connect to a list of hosts,
and once there, use sudo to upgrade the package.  I also maintain a local
mirror of updates on "duke" so I can pass ftp URL's in the command without
a lot of worry about being able to connect  :)
