How big is your lab? I know we have a few hundred machines to manage at my
job, and Jonathan has many many more.
The up2date server allows you to push[1] updates out to clients which is
much easier to deal with that than apt's pull method. I think it also
allows you to keep a listing of machines, and groups and stuff.
