Is there a way to easily deploy McAfee dat file updates to all workstations through Netware5. I have 800+ workstations to update regularly, and I would like to push the dat files to each workstation.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

mcafee doesn't actually "push" dat files, the client "pulls" them. you can configure auto update on the client to get dat files from the server, and the frequency.
If you want real push from the server, you have to upgrade to something like Network Associates Management Edition, which can manage everything centrally.

This may depend on the version of McAfee you have, but you can download the "superdat" files instead of the zipped dat's from the www.nai.com site and make them run on the workstations with de /silent option on the command line.
