Question about facilitating administration of many networked linux
machines:

For better or worse (my day job is biochemist), I'm the administrator of a
group of about 20 linux machines on a private network. I've been looking
for a way to send commands as root to all machines simultaneously via ssh.
I quickly get lost in the deluge of linux info on the web and was hoping
someone might know of a simple program/command to do this.

Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks
