in reply to Using SSH capability on Windows

Hi,
Use Net::SSH2. It uses the libssh2 library and can be installed on ActivePerl with:
ppm install http://www.sisyphusion.tk/ppm/Net-SSH.ppd --force
You also then have the option of using Net::SSH2 via the pure-perl module Net::SSH::Any. If you don't have dmake or nmake you can also install Net::SSH::Any via ppm:
ppm install http://www.sisyphusion.tk/ppm/Net-SSH-Any.ppd --force
Update: Corrected the above 2 'ppm install' commands.

I haven't used Net-SSH-Any, but I suspect its SSH interface might be a little more user-friendly than Net::SSH2.

Cheers,
Rob
