Take a look at cfengine: http://www.cfengine.org/ (don't mind the ugly web page). This program is used at many very large installations to make sure every machine has the right configuration files. Clients query a master at each interval to check if their configuration has changed. Thus instead of having to log on to each machines to change the configs (which is error prone, not to mention long and painfull), you simply change the file on the master and let it distribute itself. It's relatively easy to setup and works very well.
