Use rdist6 (from ports) with SSH as your transport.  You'll need to
install rdist6 on each system.

Once installed, use something like this: "rdist6 -P/usr/local/bin/ssh"
to send out your files.  You'll feel better knowing that it is more
secure this way as well.  You should disable the r-commands on any
untrusted network.
