Setup ssh keys with null passphrases on your "master" machine. Concatenate the public key into the servers' /root/.ssh/authorized_keys files. From the master machine, you can now run the following command (via cron, command line, or shell script) to shutdown the remote systems non-interactively: ssh root@<server> 'shutdown -h now' If you're not familiar with setting up ssh keys, let me know. -- Jason Dixon, RHCE DixonGroup Consulting http://www.dixongroup.net -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
