I am not sure I understand your question.

Here's what I read:

1. You have a shell script that will start processes on multiple servers.

2. You need to execute a shell script using perl

3. You have server IP and script path information.

4. You want your perl script to start the scripts running on the servers specified in 3.

Why can't you use the shell script you describe in 1? If you need to run it from perl, use the system command or backticks (``).
