It seem like you have to enable unattended-upgrades to start on boot, right? For systemd this should be done with "systemctl enable unattended-upgrades" afaik. Thank you for clarifying the different options and showing how to setup uu!
Great guide to follow for someone new to Linux! One question - what exactly is the update-notifier-common package? I'm a bit confused on its purpose after doing some Googling - is that just a package to facilitate the automatic emails (03:27)?
Great video! Can someone advise me on what I need to do in Windows, to make the console these colors and themes? I looked into bashrc but I am a bit unsure. Currently using Putty.
thank you but i continue to get error message regardless of what i do to try and repair.... im at a complete loss of why ";" spending months trying to figure it out and still want to avoid a complete re-install as i have other things running i dont want reset.... # uname -sr Linux 5.13.0-25-lowlatency # sudo apt install unattended-upgrades E: Syntax error /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades:124: Extra junk after value # sudo apt install update-notifier-common E: Syntax error /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades:124: Extra junk after value # sudo apt autoremove E: Syntax error /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades:124: Extra junk after value # sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow unattended-upgrades /var/lib/dpkg/info/unattended-upgrades.postinst: 75: lsb_release: not found /var/lib/dpkg/info/unattended-upgrades.postinst: 79: lsb_release: not found /var/lib/dpkg/info/unattended-upgrades.postinst: 145: lsb_release: not found /var/lib/dpkg/info/unattended-upgrades.postinst: 149: lsb_release: not found
You should only do auto updates for security. If you start doing automatic updates on your server you have no way to revert when something goes wrong. Half the updates on Ubuntu are not needed. Do you know what your updating if something goes wrong? Doubt it.
Hi 😊. Thank you for the video. Can you explain which updates allows this line "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}"; and what sre different between "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}"; and this "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}";? Maybe you can help me understand it. 🥰Thank youth-cam.com/users/sgaming/emoji/7ff574f2/emoji_u1f970.png

I'm not 100% sure, but this package is a dependency for a lot of others in Ubuntu
Is need to blacklist webserver or mysql databases from auto updates? What if i don't add anything on blacklist section?
Great Tony
Thanks Anderson
Great Video Man. Does this same procedure work on Debian 12 for laptop?
Great video! Can someone advise me on what I need to do in Windows, to make the console these colors and themes? I looked into bashrc but I am a bit unsure. Currently using Putty.
Great tutorial! Do you know how these automatic updates would work on a desktop computer? That is, a computer that isn't turned on 24/7 like a server.
awesome 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
can one install Plesk (or cPanel or an equivalent) on Linode/Vultr etc to handle the updates and avoid fussing about in the terminal?
Yeah, I don't see why not.
Tony low key ripped, you see that bicep flex at the beginning of the video ?
Gotta impress the ladies 😉
I think I already know my answer but I still ask. Would this work on Linux Mint? that's what i need to know, thanks
yes, it should. Linux is linux.

Good point. I can also see some use cases where non-security updates would be needed, but you're right, maybe not across the board
So then how do we know when we must update, should we keep checking their website ?
Congratulations, you have excellent videos!
Glad you like them!
Automatic updates on a Production Server? You’re fired!
hey tony ...
:) :)

Hi 😊. Thank you for the video. Can you explain which updates allows this line "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}";
and what sre different between "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}";
and this "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}";?
Maybe you can help me understand it.
