I have used LAN sweeper in the past to inventory a Windows domain but I don't know of any tool to deploy remotely any software. Techrepublic suggests these tools: http://search.techrepublic.com.com/search/remote+pc+tools.html Any feedback on any of them? Maybe there is any other free tool that We might use?
