This answer is *not* Gentoo based (sorry guys), but if this is to |
2 |
install the machines from scratch, you could use DiegoStart. Simply put |
3 |
the DiegoStart files in your gentoo machine with samba and then install |
4 |
all your machines automatically in unattended mode including all updates |
5 |
and any software that you want (if it can be installed in unattended |
6 |
mode, or you have a Ghost license to use AI Builder and create silent |
7 |
install packages). There are also things like nlite and Ryan VM update |
8 |
packs that will allow you to apply updates to your Windows install |
9 |
sources, but none of these will work on machines which are already |
10 |
installed. |

For machines already installed, you could manually download the updates |
18 |
to a share and then write a batch script that basically applies all |
19 |
updates in silent mode. Look here for the silent install switches. |

If you get CYGWIN with ssh installed in all the windows machines then |
23 |
you could actually ssh in and run the commands without having to walk to |
24 |
the machines. |
