Unix For loop help
Hi,

I need to reset root password on multiple servers, need to do it from my Jump server, so I'm plannin to use for loop.

Can someone pleaz suggest me how to do this...?

For example, I check the uptime of a server from my jump box,
===========================================
Code:
for i in t25an101
do
echo $i
ssh -l root $i uptime
done

t25an101
 12:35am  up 103 day(s), 19:47,  1 user,  load average: 0.85, 0.61, 0.56

===========================================

In the same way I need to reset the root password of the server t25an101.
