Do the passwords have the same special characters on the different machines. Some "special" characters are treated differently inside double quotes. To avoid that use single quotes.
$ssh->send( 'rootpasswordwithspecialcharacters' . "\n" );
The single quotes are used to protect that characters in the root password. The newline is then concatenated to the end, since \n depends on being in double quotes.
Please follow up on the new thread you started. See my response at Re: How do I get expect.pm to ignore special characters?.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
