To be honest, perl is somewhat designed for this. First question is what platform this is.

Windows: Have everyone "net use" a shared drive as the same drive letter. Update Config.pm such that it points to this drive letter (this is important for "use diagnostics" to work). Done.

Unix/Linux: Same idea, except using NFS or some other shared disk technology (AFS, DFS, SAN, NAS, etc.). Here you may be compiling from scratch, and Configure.sh actually has an option to pay attention to for setting this up during compilation. If you're compiling your own, then Config.pm will already be set up properly.

Either way, remote access to perl makes it easier to manage, but does also make it slower, and, depending on the sharing technology (SMB, NFS), can also make it less reliable.
