Found elsewhere on the web and modified.... in bash, ( ssh r...@ip -o PasswordAuthentication=no KbdInteractiveAuthentication=no ) & sleep 5 ; kill $! Assuming whatever you're doing on the list of servers will take 5 seconds to complete and continue.. if not, replace the 5 in the sleep with however long it will take to complete the task. If it hangs at a password prompt, it'll only hang for the sleep timer and then continue on.
