Hey all,
Thanks for all your help. Bryan's script worked a treat ! Here it is again
for anyone else :
#!/usr/bin/perl
#
$value = system "yum check-update";
if($value == 100) {
print "YUM UPDATES AVAILABLE - $value\n";
exit(2);
} else {
print "YUM OKAY - NO UPDATES AVAILABLE - $value\n";
exit(O);
}
Bryan
