Summary: pushupdate does not work as advertised

Initial Comment:
Hi,

We are using SIS 3.2.0. In trying to use pushupdate (to
update a single machine for now), I noticed that the
arguments it seems to require do not actually work..? I
have read the man page, the SIS documentation and I
think I am using it correctly:

pushupdate --image IMAGENAME --server IMAGESERVER
--client CLIENTNAME

I expected it to pass these arguments to updateclients
no the client machine. Instead, pushupdate just returns
the help text. I looked at the source code and noticed
that values for --image and --server are not read by
GetOptions() (I believe), nor is it indicated that
--ssh-user is required.

I checked the pushupdate script in the cvs tree and
found it was unchanged from this version.

To get it to work, I had to use the following syntax:

pushupdate --image IMAGENAME --ssh-user USER --server
IMAGESERVER --client CLIENTNAME --updateclient-options
"--image IMAGENAME --server IMAGESERVER"

I have modified the /usr/sbin/pushupdate script for our
usage to get it to work (it reads in $image and
$imageserver and checks if $client_file is defined in
line 135).

Is pushupdate meant to pass arguments to updateclient
on each client?

Thanks for your help,
Charles
