We wrote it, so we use it :)
We use scp to transfer the files across to slaves. The generated
config is different between master and slaves, so separate tarballs
are created. There's also a validation phase before we synchronise a
reload on all Nagios instances.
There's a little publicised feature where you can cluster your slaves
together, so at configuration generation time, it will split the
hosts between the clustered slaves for load balancing. if there's a
failure on one slave, the other slave will take over the active
checks. All for free!
