To cut down on wasted time and bandwidth, I would
recommend using rsync to rsync the updates from a fast
mirror to a central server, and then working from
there. I wouldn't manually download them though... or
you might be a little behind on your updates (as it
already seems you are slightly behind if you just
noticed the samba updates). I would recommend using a
cron script to sync the updates every 4 to 6 hours, or
even once daily should be enough. Then you can either
rsync the clients on your internal lan and use up2date
on the local filesystem, or you could use a
handwritten script or someone elses scripts.
