They have even both been around for a fair while now without recent changes. I find mussh a little more convenient to use. Also, mussh is just one file written in bash, which is considerably simpler (and thus easier for people to modify to suit their needs). I don't know that either one is Amazingly Better than the other, but I do know a number of large organizations who are using mussh (it is packaged for Fedora) and I think having it in Debian would be to our benefit. :) By the way, here's the current description I'm using now: " Description: MUltihost SSH Wrapper Mussh is a shell script that allows you to execute a command or script over ssh on multiple hosts with one command. When possible mussh will use ssh-agent and RSA/DSA keys to minimize the need to enter your password more than once. . Unlike clusterssh or mssh, mussh is just a shell script wrapper for ssh with concurrency support. It is intended to make running identical commands or scripts on almost any number of hosts possible with minimal overhead. There is no GUI and the only language used is bash. " Thanks, -Jacob
