Push S/W installation to clients

Comment:

Hi, When I was in my previous company, (was a user then), software installations and updates were pushed to our computers. We can then run the installation / updates. Some installations were made compulsory and some optional. Now I'm the network admin in my new job(just beginner), how can I add this kind of functions to my existing network? We have a Windows Small Business Server 2003 and all our clients are running on Win XP SP2. Appreciate your advise. Thank you.

There are also 3'd party solutions available such as Altiris (just to name one).
