Auto-Update using Apple's Software Update E-mail
Written by Geoff Franks   
Thursday, 24 November 2005

Update 1/23/2006: Updated to make it cronnable (full path to commands, since /usr/sbin isn't in $PATH for root.
Update 12/05/2005: Updated the AppleScript portion with a timeout of one week.
Update 12/02/2005: I fixed the code with <'s and >'s, and added some applescript functionality inspired by Blake Irvin's script.

The main things I find missing from Apple's Software Update Server are the abilities to push out updates from server to client, and schedule updating for clients, rather than just let them look at the server. This is the script I came up with to remedy this as best as I can given the current situation.
