I have to install standard package like java 1.7 in 40 of my lab machines which are connected over a LAN.
I know I can simply write a shell script to install something in user space of each system, that basically does an scp
to each system and extracts them to user space, but how can I install packages from one sytem to another that requires root access to each system?
And yes I have root access to each of the system, but I don't know how to automate the installation over the network by controlling from a single system.
