I log into my server and install apache updates with one command line. I install modules with a push of a button. I just logged in a few days ago and it told me to update my kernal due to security problems, which I will do in the morning.
What am I missing? That doesnt seem to be much and to hear some guys talk about it, you would think its rocket science.
dont think its the actual management, but more the Tweaking and optimization of apache, mysql etc. that scares ppl.
Also, if (when) things fuck up its nice to have someone next to the box that can actually fix your stuff, and get you up again.

I manage my own servers as well, and with the cpanel/up2date combo its really a walk in the park. However, I do understand why someone would prefer to have someone else handling their servers.
