Executing A Local Shell Script On A Remote Server...
So I am creating a shell script to check various security settings on RHEL 5.6 servers. Obviously I am not a guru with this so how can I have the script on one machine (RH or Windows) and be able to run it against a remote box without actually installing it on the remote box? I want to avoid installing it on multiple servers.
Thanks,
Ray

You can create a script that gets a list of ips of a file, tries to connect with ssh and runs some commands.
Shouldn't be a problem.
You may wanna check ssh configuration, theres the possibility to add a key into a list that will get accepted without user auth.
Or you store user and pw in a file ...
Hope that helps u.
