What you want is a SUS, Software Update Service. You can get it for free from 
M$. Then all you have to do is tell the clients to poll your sus server 
frequently. This can be done in many serveral ways:

- - by a group policy (up to now only with a Windows domain controller, which is 
probably what you are referring to)
- - by hand (just importing a small registry snippet)
- - by some sort of script doing point 2.
- - ...

This really has not very much to do with samba.
