what you need is Kerberos.

Setup two Servers one Master one Slave and kerberize all the Servers

than your admins have to login only once and can move around all kerb.

Set one admin aside and give him the project to learn Kerberos and than

implement it. you can also kerberize Apache etc (mod-krb)
