I'm looking for a solution to store configuration files in a central location. My first guess was to look at LDAP, and see if you can use that for keeping track of configuration.

Have a look at Puppet. I use LDAP to store information about systems, and then based on that information, Puppet pushes out (or modifies) configuration files, among other things. (LDAP support is built-in, so long as you add an objectClass and a couple of attributes to your schema.)

Yes, I suggest also puppet.
It is far secure to have files on each servers, and have a something
keeping them updated.
Imagine if your LDAP server stops, even with slaves, I won't bet...

I see one problem, you speak about Windows...and there, puppet does not
support it (yet ?).
I think cfengine can support somewhat Windows.
