I'm considering changing it to call rpm -qa and sort the results directly,
rather that relying on the /etc/cron.daily/rpm having run, which would likely
address #2.  As for #3, I felt if same to assume that most networked Fedora
hosts would have ssh running and rpm installed.

Could you elaborate on #1?  I'm not sure I follow what you mean.
