I am using Jenkins 1.6.

The Windows *slave*?  Is the target of a Jenkins build a "slave"?  The 
Windows servers are those that will get builds (builds that were initiated 
by Jenkins).

Which plugin?  I tried different plugins.  I am open to using whatever that 
works.  I was thinking of having an "Execute Shell" or "Execute Python" job 
with variables that had credentials.  The credentials would stored using 
the "Manage Credentials" feature of Jenkins.     The credentials would be 
for local administrators on the Windows servers.  The method needs to be 
secure (not passed via plaintext over the network).

I know how to install plugins.  The Jenkins server has no internet 
connection.  I get the .hpi file and restart Jenkins services.

If I need to use a plugin, I could use one of these:

  "SSH Credentials plugin"
  "Publish over SSH plugin" 

I'm not sure what will be necessary.  What do you recommend?
