Howdy,
RaQ has a script that runs a small thingy which checks for updates and installs those...
Does RedHat (7.2) have that too?
If so, where do I get it?

No Problem:
1.] Open an Account at https://rhn.redhat.com/
2.] LogIn
3.] Read the Manual 'Getting Started' = you need to start via SSH (or on the Desktop when you have direct Access) a Programm on your Server. With this Programm you register your Maschine in the RHN-Profile. After this RHN know your Server and check it if there are Packages who are old, no secure and make a Mail to you everytime when a new Version come out of a Package what you have installed.
When you get such a Info-Mail, log to RHN and then you can say install and RHN makes the Update for you. No Worry, they dont have then your Root-Passwd., when you register your Maschine RHN reads out the RPM-Database and save it in your RHN-Account.
You can even make Kernel-Updates via RHN, I testet it and its works !
