we don't use the rdist philosophy to distribute files (i.e, the "push" from a
central location to all the clients). instead, we use a tool called "track"
which uses the "pull" philosophy to update clients (i.e., clients have to
specifically request an update).
if this sounds interesting i can tell you more, but this forum probably isn't
the right place ...
