Sorry if this has already been mentioned (I didn't get the original message), but if what you want to do is have some degree of interaction in the remote machine you might want to consider Perl-Expect : http://sourceforge.net/projects/expectperl I actually use it for a very similar task as yours, running periodically to obtain data (ram, hard disk space, etc) on a large number of machines in our institute. (It can do for you so much more than just this, but this is also possible).
