well that depends. I do similar things in a fully linux enviorment on a regular basis. But before I go further I want to a take a moment to expalin that I have set up my boxes to communicate via ssh, including tools such as scp (secure copy), where I have established my keys on the boxes in question and have set up ssh-agent to handle authentication, so that I do not need to enter my password for every box. Using a bash it might look something like this...
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# here I am defining the file that I will be getting
# the names or ip address for the computers that
# I want to run through the loop
ips='cat ./stations.txt`
# this is the base of the loop, for every entery in
# the aforementioned set, it will be run through
# the loop
for ip in $ips
do
scp /temp/file.txt yourusername@$ip:/temp/
done
I hope that this helps shed some light on the subject...
