Good point Broli - since you are already using sudo, create the shutdown scripts (one script for all hosts - perform the OS check locally), and give mbaker the right to run the shutdown script.
Then, your script would simply be:
Code:
for host in `cat $hostlist` do; ssh $host emergencyShutdown <flags/options>;done

rrpc_shutdown(3ncs)													       rrpc_shutdown(3ncs)

Name
       rrpc_shutdown - shut down a server

Syntax
       #include <idl/c/rrpc.h>

       void rrpc_$shutdown(handle, status)
       handle_t handle;
       status_$t *status;

Arguments
       handle A remote procedure call (RPC) handle.

       status The completion status.  If the completion status returned in is equal to status_$ok , then the routine that supplied it was success-
	      ful.

Description
       The routine shuts down a server, if the server allows it.  A server can use the routine to allow or disallow remote shutdown.

Diagnostics
       This section lists status codes for errors returned by this routine in

       rrpc_$shutdown_not_allowd
	      You send an request to a server that has not issued an call.

Restrictions
       On the client side, because of the way the calls are defined and implemented in the run-time library you  must  explicitly  call  into  the
       entry  point  vector  table  for  the  interface to send an request across the network. The following is an example of a call that works as
       desired:
       (*rrpc_$client_epv.rrpc_$shutdown)(handle, &status);

       The server side stub routine calls the entry point on behalf of the client.  The results of the call are then passed back to the client.

       Before making the shutdown call, the server must have previously executed the following call:
       rpc_$allow_remote_shutdown((unsigned long) TRUE,NULL,&status);

       If the server has not allowed remote shutdown, the call returns an status code.
