There is another method that _may_ work, YMMV, as I haven't tried it in
this contect myself.  There is a URL class loader, which can in essence
load the driver class from a jar file referenced by a URL and served up
by a web server on the network.  It's not unlike loading the Driver
class locally, and you can then have a central distribution point (or
points) for the driver.

Just an idea...
