I have a ~2gb file I need regularly sent to ~300 *Nix servers. What's the best way to do this?

You can use a private torrent tracker like this: https://github.com/leighmacdonald/mika. Set every server to connect to this tracker. When you're ready to publish, log into each server and add a torrent task with the latest file info.

Actually, it was just the source code the site itself. They did run a tracker, but that used this.
