mass 

mass.pl is the implementation of a relatively simple idea. Instead of interactively doing some task on one machine, then duplicating the effort on N other machines, write a shell script, then scp it to N machines and execute it as root. Example (sic@foo)($:~/mass)- ./mass.pl --name solaris --script pushsomething --su --sshpass sudo password: ssh password: trying to run pushsomething on 1 machines test test PING test.example.com (10.1.1.10) from 10.1.2.3 : 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 10.1.1.10: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.142 ms --- test.example.com ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% loss, time 0ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.142/0.142/0.142/0.000 ms pushsomething 100% |*****************************| 183 00:00 test.txt 100% |*****************************| 15 00:00 sic@tests password: sh-2.05a$ PS1=$ ; PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/s;export PS1;export PATH $ sudo -K ; sudo sh Password: $ PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/sbin ; export PATH $ if [ `id|cut -d -f 1` = uid=0(root) ]; then PS1=# ; fi # sh pushsomething && echo script done || echo script failed script done # /bin/rm pushsomething test.txt && echo removed pushsomething test.txt removed pushsomething test.txt # 1 passed: test 0 failed: 0 fatal errors:.
