You could use autorpm ( www.autorpm.org ). I use it to maintain about
500 workstations in various labs.
It's very easy to configure. You can configure a single server which
downloads the latest rpm updates from a redhat server or mirror each
night and then use a cron job on the workstations to update each night.
