Network installation path

No users should be local admin to accomplish this task.
we are Win domain based environment
Any ideas ?

I am not aware of any software repository that will do what you want. All the software I use has ALL different methods of download, install and setup that I do not know of any one tool.
System Center Configuration Manager is one of many solutions available. --> yes to push out , my goal is to "pull" it is also pull. And the client agent does the work and the agent has admin privileges.

However the users must be administrators for most installs, so "No users should be local admin" won't work.--> You're correct on this one, I was looking for some kind of SW repository where users would be able to choose from approved list and install on their own.

Installations will vary probably, EXE, MSI etc. Network based location will be maintained by an domain admin, not end user (write VS Read/execute)
are you aware of any software repositories that would do such a thing ?
