mc-ssh

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

# Frontend to ssh that uses mcollective discovery to find hosts.
#
# It requires the rdialog gem to be available, basic usage is:
#
#  mc-ssh --with-class /webserver/ -- -l root
#
# This will present you with a list of hosts and run:
#
#    ssh <host> -l root
#
# on your chosen host.
