Active Directory can only deploy packages in MSI format. This isn't very widely used; mostly software is available in EXE format.
With Samba, as in whole *NIX philosophy, one tool does the job, but does it well.

To distribute software with Samba, one can use [ WPKG | http://wpkg.org ] - with this tool, you just configure the software which should be installed / upgraded / uninstalled on a given machine or a group of machines - and next time these Windows workstations are booted, the software you specified is installed / upgraded / uninstalled automatically.
