As a suitably secure user:

     $ for i in `cat list_of_backup_machines`
     do
         scp magicscript $i:/opt/bacula/magicscript
     done

If you haven't set up ssh-equivalence, and, for some reason cannot do 
so, then an 'expect' script is only slightly more complicated.

Probably be a good idea, in that case, to write an expect script to set 
up ssh equivalence.
