What part of bpsetconfig doesn't work? I have 400+ clients that I've
updated this way.

Create a file with the new SERVER=3D entries
(e.g. /tmp/serverlist:
SERVER =3D master1
SERVER =3D media1
SERVER =3D media2
)

then cat the file into bpsetconfig

for client in client1 client2 client3
do
        cat /tmp/serverlist | bpsetconfig -h $client
done

What else do you need?

The one thing you do have to watch for is that the clients can resolve
the new servernames properly.
