software updates including security patches, bug fixes and errata

configuration and installed software. - Notification of updates: Mandrakeonline can alert users on
availability of updates by e-mail and by an applet notification on
the desktop. - Automatic updates: With automatic software updates there is no
need to worry about manual updating of the Mandrakelinux systems.

Mandrakeprofile and lets the administrator keep a track of the
status of all the machines on the network. - Flexible scheduled updates: The complete history of all updates
can be viewed by full log access and a personalized page at
www.mandrakeonline.net.
With the new Mandrakeonline, a simple mouse click or a single
command is enough to update a Mandrakelinux system with security
updates and bug fixes. Updates can be scheduled for a convenient
time, such as at night when the computer has sufficient free
resources.
