I can't help you with rdist since I don't use it, but have you thought 
about rsync?  I've found it quite useful.  It can be run as a service via 
inetd and you can even use ssh as the transport method if security is an 
issue.  It also doesn't need any of the r* services, which are somewhat unsafe.

The rsync homepage can be found at http://rsync.samba.org if you're curious.
