Presuming you're using CentOS and have the proper exclude line in your yum.conf file, you can run yum automatically every night through a cronjob.
You should be running custombuild instead of customapache.
You should set custombuild to warn you by email when changes are made; then run custombuild whenever there's an important security update, or monthly or so for other updates.
