I download the updates from apple 
then i install on my development box and test 
then i release to internal testing 
then i release to pilot testing 
then i deploy live 

The user has no input or interaction, i only install system, security, and java updates, i do not install firmware or application updates mid term

I have what may seem a ridiculous question.  Is anyone allowing their end users to download and install Apple Software Updates?  I have users logging into AD on their machines and everyone is a standard user.  The whole idea of Casper seems to revolve around controlled installation of software but I'm wondering as to whether I should allow a standard user to download/install Apple's sanctioned updates.  My next question is, how are you allowing the standard users to download and install these updates within Casper?
