How would I accomplish this?

Hey guys new to the forums.

I have been searching for a while for a way to do this and have not had much luck.

Basically I need to control the mouse on multiple computers in a LAN with my computer mouse. I need each computer to have its own mouse cursor and I need to be able to make sure each one is perfectly synced up with one another. Also would be very helpful to have a quick disable button so I can use one of the cursors individually.

Here is a diagram to help explain what I need. Thanks

Unless all of these machines are simply mirroring the host, I don't see how this would be useful.
My teacher used a program in high school that would do something like this, though. I can't think of the name at the moment, but I may be back later if I remember.
 
No all machines need to be running on their own which is why I cant use remote desktop or something like that.
 
I...don't understand what you are trying to accomplish by doing this, if you use one mouse and somehow mirror it to multiple machines, what's the point? You won't increase productivity by doing this as you will have to mirror the machines themselves to accomplish anything. If you were to use a multiple monitor setup I know a very good software that allows you to have taskbars on every monitor as well as plenty of other neat features, but I can't think of anything that can mirror a mouse to multiple machines.
 
I need this for a very specific task which I would rather not disclose here.

Anyways it looks like I have found a solution. I guess they call it multiboxing when you do this and is usually used for MMORPGs

This guy is multiboxing EVE using just one keyboard/mouse
