I believe that '#yum -y update' will allow yum to run updates unattended :)
If you are brave enough... It has been my experience that SOME packages
COULD cause problems, so I like to do this manually also.
This is true; if you use crond, remember to set up a correct PATH= and to add a MAILTO= to have a list of the update done by yum.
I do that for long time now and it run just fine. If you do the same manually, you can't know before upgrading a package if this cause problem, so I found doing that in background an having a list of what is updated a better solution to the problem.
Just my 2 EuroCent
