I would like something push+pull sollution.

Ie:
- main content is changing by editor
- it is automatically fire a trigger
- triger sends ntofication to mirrors
- mirrors wake up and syncing its content from main site

in closer form:
main site side
- a web editor publish something to the web system via cvs
- in the cvs pserver running a script
- this script generate html fils from cvs PLUS kick mirrors
- kicking: start a new ssh session via key auth
mirror side
- incoming ssh key has a burned in command (authorized_keys) to firing up
   mpwww-sync script (push)
- mpwww-sync runs from crontab also

What about something like this?

There is no externel code or extra account required to be run in mirror 
sites. All transfer will be operate az pull.

But the 
synchronisation will be both push and pull. The main site changes will be 
spread on running sites of mirror network immediately. If a kick lost in 
cyberspace (mirror down, network outage, etc) then the cron will try to 
resync again.
