[Techtalk] remote server management

[N Hospodarsky]

Mike,

Thanks! That IS pretty much exactly what I'm looking for. I guess I'll start
evaluating different tools.
Ultimately I'd like whatever we use to be simple, cross-platform (as much as
that is possible), and free (or cheap).

Here's a couple other things I found yesterday, just for the record:

tentakel: http://tentakel.biskalar.de/
rgang: http://fermitools.fnal.gov/abstracts/rgang/abstract.html
DSH: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dsh


Your referenced cssh appeals to me in that its requirements seem at first
glance to be pretty basic.
