Sorry for the tardy reply, I've been off the 'net for 2 weeks vacationing in
Austria.

If a proprietary solution would be acceptable, check out my employer's
offerings.
I know that the products available from OpenService <http://www.open.com/>
include a "software push" capability, and I am presently working on porting
the product set to Linux (the port went to QA the day I left for vacation, I
still need to review the results of testing to date to figure out the
schedule from here).  There are also a whole lot of other features that are
included in the package, providing a lot of system management automation.

Greg, if this is still an interesting topic please email me directly and
we'll figure out what benefits we can offer for your requirements.
