Is there a standard way to remotely manage 100+ SUSE boxes? The
machines are NLPOS9, which is based on SLES9, which is in turn based
on SUSE 9.1. I need a way to remotely administer them, with cheaper
solutions being ideal.
The problem is having to individually log in and tweak things on 100+
boxes. The administration tasks would be applying security updates,
and working with files for custom applications.
I believe I can do this with two shell scripts, a "control" script and
a "job" script. The control script would copy (via scp) and remotely
run (via SSH) the job script to a list of servers stored in an ASCII
file. Is this the standard way of doing this?
Any suggestions?
well, i should install 1 ( or maybe 2 ) LTSP servers, and turn the 100
suse boxes into thinclients with LTSP. Then you only have to manage 1 (
or 2 ) servers. This is a real dream from point of view administration.
Of course it depends on what kind of applications needs to run on the
thinclients. Realy worth thinking about....
a happy LTSP/OpenSUSe user
