I could give them access to production like they use to have, of course I really don't want that. I could also use svn/git with rsync (which we have done in the past) or simply manual write custom scripts for everything, although I really want a turnkey solution.

I'd like to setup the infrastructure and walk away, well for the most part anyway. Nice to have would be a web UI, although it's not required. Right now all I've been able to find is Rational Build Forge and I'm looking for opinions and experience from the PLUG.

Capistrano is popular for deploying Rails projects, but there's no reason it couldn't be used with non-Rails code. It includes all the features you're describing, including rollbacks, and integrates with either svn or git. There would be a learning curve if you're not familiar with Ruby, but it's a great tool and (I think) worth the effort.
