You can use NFS or rsync. Make sure the src and obj path names are 
exactly the same on all thes servers. I used to use NFS until a year or 
two ago when I started using different patches on different machines. 
On occasion I've used rsync followed by a NO_CLEAN, WORLDFAST, KERNFAST 
build on the target machine or simply installkernel and installworld.
