Check out asd, a program for Automatic Software Distribution,
available from the AT&T Toolchest.  It's pretty cheap:  only $250
(a year ago) for sources, and you'll probably spend two or three
times that in hours to write shell scripts.

Asd uses mail and uucp, so you'll need a uucp connection between
machines.  But if you're working together on a project, it makes
sense to lash your machines together somehow, if only for the improved
communication speed.
