Script for shutting down 48 computers
Hi All, I am pretty new to unix type languages. At work we have a server room with about 50 windows computers in one system and 50 in a unix system. We sometimes have power outages and I don't like the power slam. I wrote a windows batch file using sysinternals help to shutdown the windows computers. I am trying to write one for the unix servers. I started by using vi editor. I remember a little from school. Anyhoo, I start from one of the computers (I use ACC36 because that is where my KVM is. all are names ACC###)ACC36 and
Code:
ssh ACC30

to get to ACC30. Then my next line is
Code:
init 0

this is the shutdown command.
My next command is to get back to ACC36 before the shutdown is
Code:
ssh ACC36

Well, that works, but when I repeat the commands in the script for the other ACC's, it never goes past the first return to ACC36. After I write and save it with :wq , I then
Code:
chmod 755 power-off

Then to execute I go
Code:
./power-off

What am I doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated.

C-BIOS(7)						 Miscellaneous Information Manual						 C-BIOS(7)

NAME

       C-BIOS - provides open source BIOS ROM files for MSX computers

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the C-BIOS rom files.

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       C-BIOS is an open source BIOS for MSX computers. C-BIOS can be shipped with MSX emulators so they are usable out-of-the-box.

       Details	about the BIOS calls available in the ROM files can be found at http://map.tni.nl/ but keep in mind the C-BIOS is work in progress
       and does not support all BIOS calls yet.

       C-BIOS comes in three versions currently. C-BIOS_MSX1 is compatible with MSX1 machines, C-BIOS_MSX2 is compatible with MSX2 machines and C-
       BIOS_MSX2+ is compatible with MSX2+ machines.

       Each version comes in three localisation variants, an international, Japanse (JP) and Brazilian (BR) one.
