You might try looking through the list archives. I vaguely remember a
discussion about a custom system that was set up on a university network to
enforce up-to-date security settings (patch level, AV updates, etc.) before
the host was given access. Unfortunately, I don't remember any specifics
right this minute, but I do remember being pretty impressed from the
description. I think that some or all of the software was freely available.
It was probably last year or early this year. Someone else on the list may
remember more.

This might also help:

A few other relevant solutions have been suggested, but they're all
retail.  I was actually expecting more of the 'free unix' approach;
maybe I've been on Full-Disclosure for too long ;).
