PS:
Automatically update your system
Yum in Fedora Core contains a script to automatically update the entire system every day. To activate the daily automatic update, enter the following command:
Su-c '/sbin/chkconfig -- level 345 yum on;/sbin/service yum start'
Enter the password of the root account when prompted.
How is daily update done?
There is no separate yum service in the system. This command enables the control script/etc/rc. d/init. d/yum. This control script activates/etc/cron. daily/yum. cron, which enables the cron service to automatically update the system at every day.
