Which Method? What Tools? Ideas please.

Hello Class!

There�re currently about 250 customer scripts on 4 different server NOT 
under version control. I�m planning to bring all the scripts under 
Subversion version control residing on its own RHLE 3.5 Linux with Apache2.

I have 2 methods in mind:

1.  I plan to pull them down from the 4 Linux servers to a central place, 
like my desktop, and then check them into SVN. Once under version control, 
each of our users could install the SVN WinXP client on their desktop, check 
out all or a specific project, modify, check in, and upload them back to its 
corresponding server for our customers.  Do I have to write shell scipts to 
automate the upload back to the non-working folders on each of the 4 
servers?  Or does SVN provide such a feature?


2.  Basically the same method as above, except that each server becomes an 
SVN client and our users login to each box to check out their scripts, 
modify, deploy to customers account folders and back to the working folder, 
etc. This method entails installing SVN on each server!  One thing to bear 
in mind, I have set up Subversion running with Apache2 server restricted 
from outside access and I prefer it this way.  What method is more 
preferable and more secure?

My head hurts now :/

Thank you
