Huh? "fink install" produces .deb files, look in
/sw/fink/dists/{un}stable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/

If you can mount (I know it works with appleshare, but NFS should work,
too, and a firewire disk forks certainly) the partition containing /sw/
on your build machine on the others, you can use apt-get. Just put some
lines like (external partition mounted on /Volumes/Software)
deb file:/Volumes/Software/sw/fink local main bootstrap
deb file:/Volumes/Software/sw/fink stable main crypto
deb file:/Volumes/Software/sw/fink unstable main crypto
into your /sw/etc/apt/sources.list on the client machines.
Then on the build host, run "fink scanpackges", and on the clients "sudo
apt-get update", "sudo apt-get upgrade". I am doing this all the time
here. I am building on an iMac-700MHz connected via Airport to the iBook
on which I am typing this.
