Re: [arch-general] "Automatic" upgrade

Can the machine download emails from a remote server? You could set something up that downloads emails from a certain mailbox, validates they're PGP signature, and runs the body as a shell script. Tedious, but it works.

Yes (I didn't test it actually but I think I can have it), but it's always the same problem: I have to trust "something" (a GPG key, an SSH key, a VPN, a machine, whatever...) outside of the closed network. The advantage of what I was trying to do in the first place (automatic upgrades) is that I don't need to open a hole to access the machine as long as there is no problem. -- Ismael
