I'm doing something like this now.
We used to use NIS, but it started spouting a lot of problems, so I
tossed it.
Use rdist, and specify -P /usr/local/bin/ssh on the command line so that
it uses ssh instead of rsh to distribute the files, and use RSA key
authentication.  I just stuck it on the end of all our user modification
scripts so it would automagically re-dist the files when anything was
changed.
