I put the .pac file on the workstations, and update it via login script.  This allows 
me to do things like:

function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
{
if (isInNet(myIpAddress(), "10.10.14.0", "255.255.255.0"))
return "PROXY 10.10.10.10:3128";
return "DIRECT";
}

which allows laptops to go home and work correctly, without a proxy server, on their 
broadband connection.

You would put this file on a Web server.  Furthermore you need to make sure
that the server returns the correct content type for the URL.  You
can do it in apache like this:

   AddType application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig .pac
