Can it cope with a back-log? Has anyone tried? I can't suck-it-and-see on
any of my own systems because they are all up to date.
Two of my clients' systems are horribly out of date; Teamviewer is playing up;
I haven't sussed port forwarding via that router and on a Dynamic IP, and I
am having difficulty getting physical access. I am sure that I could talk
one of them through installing unattended-upgrades if it could then sort out
the much-needed security updates. The rest can wait for the other problems
to be solved!!
