I use NFS mount of the software inside the firewall for Solaris.  That may not work in your environment though
Mount, install, unmount.  For Windows we install using the windows \\server\directory mode

[Veritas-bu] Different Ways to Install Client Software





All,

Ok, I am starting to run into annoying problems.  I used to install my new clients using rcp.  Well my company started disabling rsh on all server (rightfully so).

Well, I modified the install_client_software script and replaced the rcp,rsh with scp, ssh and it worked great!  I also would use ftp to install the client when necessary.

Well, now they are turning off ftp on all servers.  For some reason, the ssh install that used to work, no longer does?!?!  I can ssh to the servers by hand, but not using the script.

Anyway, my question is what other ways are there to install the client software on a Solaris 8/9/10 box?  Or a Linux server?
