2) Use the yum-driven options *AND* run your own satellite server so you can ping it as often as you like.
You don't need a Satellite Server for this, just a plain Yum server will do, which is essentially just httpd + createrepo for RHEL5. This is about 2 seconds worth of work. You can then send down a custom Yum repository configuration with the Yumrepo[] type, something that is unique in Puppet to RHEL-based systems.
In fact, I find that Puppet supports RHEL-based system best, as it has the most types for that system.
I couldn't imagine doing any RPM package installation with an RPM type. Everything should come down from a Yum server, if only for version and dependency management.
