I admin 50 odd solaris machines, I had all web servers updated to 1.3.26
before I finished work last night. It isn't hard if you are a
professional to do these things yourself, a build on a build box and
then push out of the binaries is very little work indeed to keep
whatever your machines may be up to date. The hardest machine for me to
update was an old redhat linux machine that has yet to be EOL, the
freebsd boxes were updated the same way our sun boxes were.

Cheers,

Mark
