Manage your servers the easy way with perl script over ssh with no remote client.

For a long time I have not posted any script. So, its not that I have not written anything new, but just that did not put them here in lack of time. So, here is one interesting one. The original idea came from one posted in one of the interesting blog here. But the problem with this one was that for every time, it ran in the cron, it would make multiple entries in the “last” output (about 10 or more with my modifications for differentiating between solaris and Linux). This is something which is not quite desirable. Hence I came up with this script which is based on html template and hence the output is also easier to manipulate. BTW, just the below script will not help, you would need to download the template files as well. In the list.txt file, you will have to put the usename, password and the server IP to monitor. The server could be any Linux or Solaris host.
