UDPCAST uses multi-cast to directly transfer from one machine to many.
http://udpcast.linux.lu/
You can create floppy or cd images custom to your hardware at the site. It 
can directly copy from the hard disk to the other machines, but you can 
manually use the udp-sender program to transfer a compressed image. If 
you are sending to multiple machines it doesn't work, it is probable and 
IGMP setting that is causing the problem. 

Since it uses multicast, it only has to transmit one copy of the image to all 
machines, whereas ftp would send a copy to each machine. Takes just a 
little more time to send to many as one. If you have one machine with a 
slower drive,  it will have to pause for it to catch up.
