I have few Macs in my network. I have apple script that I want to run on all Macs. I have the list of IP address, username and password for each Mac.
Is it possible?

Yes.

How?

First the good news: that's what eppc is for, you can write:

tell application "Finder" of machine "eppc:// theuser:thepassword@theIP" to [do whatever]

The bad news is, AppleScripts have to be run by some application. If your script is 100% in "tell application xxx" wrappers, you should have no trouble. If your script cannot be fully encapsulated in "tell" wrappers, then you may have to use some kind of script server to "tell" him. Maybe Script Editor can do that, I don't know.
