' Executing a command on multiple servers simultaneously is straightforward.
' It's just a matter of using one SSH object per server..

success = ssh1.AuthenticatePw("sshLogin1","sshPassword1")
If (success <> 1) Then
    Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( ssh1.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"

' to do the connecting and authenticating in parallel...

' and then show the current system date/time.
