Thanks for the reply.
I tried that but adding the utf8::downgrade only made my variable change to '1'.
Here is my code

use Net::SSH::Perl;
use XML::Simple;

do "routines/Log.pm";

my $c_rsync = "$Bin/conf/plugins/rsync.xml";

unless (-e "$c_rsync" ) {
    Log ( $l_plugin , "no config file was found, exiting" );
    exit;
}

my $xml_conf = eval { XMLin ( $c_rsync , ForceArray => [ 'rsync' ] , K
+eyAttr => {} , KeepRoot => 0 ) };
if ($@) {
    Log ( $l_plugin , "failed to load plugin \'rsync\' xml.\nReason: $
+@" );
    exit;
}

my ( @rFolder , @rUser , @rIp , @rHome , @rProxy );
foreach (@{ $xml_conf -> {'plugin'} -> {'rsync'} }) {

    push ( @rFolder , $_ -> {'loc'} );
    push ( @rUser , $_ -> {'uname'} );
    push ( @rIp , $_ -> {'ip'} );
    push ( @rHome , $_ -> {'fol'} );

    if ( defined ( $_ -> {'proxy'} ) ) {
        push ( @rProxy , $_ -> {'proxy'} );
    } else {
        push ( @rProxy , 0 );
    }
}

my $cV = 0;
foreach ( @rFolder ) {
my $rSsh = Net::SSH::Perl -> new ( $rIp[$cV] , protocol => '2,1' , ide
+ntity_files => [ "/root/rsync/$rUser[$cV]-rsync-key" ] , debug => 1 )
+;

$rSsh -> login ( $rUser[$cV] );

my ( $oMsg , $oErr , $oExit ) = $rSsh -> cmd ( "du" );
print "$oMsg";

$cV++;
}
exit;

I removed the parts not related to the Net::SSH::Perl stuff.
The code works great when I replace $rSsh -> login ( $rUser[$cV] ); with $rSsh -> login ( 'yams-dev' );
and $rUser[$cV] is definatley giving 'yams-dev' without any newlines on the end or anything odd like that.
This is the debug output I'm getting:
