Bjorn,
If it's an homogeneous network like it seems (lot's of users in a
single logical network) then managing 100 machines is "almost the same"
as managing 10.
It may require a little shell programming magic or a better planning
of the network settings, for instance:
Are the homes directly on the computers, or are the homes in a central
server that exports (via NFS, SMB or something else) them to the
desktops?
If this is the case, for instance, you'd just have to do that almost
as easy as:
for USER in /home/* ; do
whatever
done
Or a variation of this (some cases might require more refinement).
If the homes are in the desktops, ssh is your friend. Use ssh-agent and
you'll just enter your passphrase once and be able to access all those
machines in a for like statement.
Hugs, Rui
ps: I have nearly 70 machines all for myself in an heterogeneous
network, with several versions of GNU/Linux (that where deployed in
different seasons) and I wish I had 1000 on the same network...
