Has anyone seen software or a script that will allow you to send a login to multiple machines at one time? Say for an entire room, for sake of an example, has 75 computers all on the same vlan and we would like to login to all the computers without touching each one of them individually with a specified username.

I feel having the same login/password on all 75 computers is a bad security practice. Are you talking about logging into all the computers via SSH or FTP or something like that or are you talking about having the computers automatically log in when booted? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- EARN A MASTER OF SCIENCE IN INFORMATION ASSURANCE - ONLINE The Norwich University program offers unparalleled Infosec management education and the case study affords you unmatched consulting experience.
