A more trivial way to do it (although potentially insecure)...

Setup on box as the 'master', and have a cron script scp the appropriate
files to the other boxen.  THis will keep consistency of name, passwd,
uid,gid, home etc., etc.  

Not a solution for large or security consious environments, but a
working solution for Home.
