What we do is install and look after one machine, and then we use
rdist to make all our other machines look identical. We've used
this quite effectively for some years - for example on Monday we
upgraded 13 machines from 4.1-STABLE to 4.2-STABLE in about 2.5
hours.

(If you're interested in our rdist configuration, mail me and I'll
send you our config files).
