Updating 20 some servers

SlowJoe
Hi,

I have about 25 MS SQL (v8.00.2039) servers that from time to time I need to connect to and run simple update statements. I have access to these servers via a VPN and remote desktop software. I connect via the servers IP. It can be very time consuming to do this since I have to connect to each server, open Query Analyzer, type (actually paste) the update command, execute it, then exit.

I sometimes also need to copy files to these server. I've figured out a way to use RASDIAL to connect to the VPN and do copies (using Net Use and Xcopy). But I'm wondering if there is a way to also issue update commands to these servers via ODBC or something using a script of some sort. I've figured out I can create DSN's for each server on my local machine, connect to the VPV, then use a tool like WinSQL lite to connect and do my updates. That too is pretty time consuming.

It would be nice if, while using my RASDIAL script I could also issue the update I need to do.

Is this possible somehow? Any suggestions I can look into?

Thanks,
Slow.
