I use apt-get -dy upgradeThis way it just downloads the upgraded packages automatically, and once I get around to connecting to the box I can then select which ones to upgrade one at a time and then finish the job off.The package cron-apt also does what you describe, negating even the need to write your own cron job :-) Dave.
I've had that line in my crontab for about 18 months now, never found the need to install another package to do the same thing ;)
But I would assume cron-apt is a bit more configurable, but meh, it just works(tm) :)
