Hudson to Glassfish deployment

We are in the process of setting up Continuous Integration at the client site where we are implementing a Java CAPS project.

The following tools are used for CI:
1. NetBeans for development;
2. Subversion for version control;
3. Maven for Build;
4. Hudson for deploy.

The challenge we are experiencing is having Hudson deploy to Glassfish after having Maven build the project. All the components live on different servers.

One solution is to have Hudson call a native asadmin script to perform deployment to Glassfish.

We are using Solaris 10 as our operating system. Solaris comes with a version of asadmin out of the box.

The questions I have are:
1. Is this a good approach (to have Hudson deploy .ear files to Glassfish using native asadmin)?
2. Is the out-of-the-box version of asadmin sufficient to deploy to Glassfish?
3. Is it possible to upgrade the out-of-the-box asadmin tool in Solaris 10?

Thanks for the help.
