You could feed them into a script that calls knife bootstrap with the appropriate flags, or you could look into something like chef-provisioning.

Sir,

Can you please give me an example how to perform the script…by taking these windows machines as example

10.0.10.1 password : aqxwey  
10.0.10.2 password : ijzzxy  
10.0.10.3 password :pytyttsz

Thanks
