Re: In Linux how to kill the Prompt

[atcroft]

It sounds like what you are wanting may be to use Expect or Net::SSH::Expect to log in via ssh into the other machine and kick off the process. Both of the modules mentioned can be used to write code to log into a remote system and execute commands.

Hope that helps.

Is it possible to run command as background job on remote machine using this module?

I can see its possible using Net::OpenSSH which is documented as, Running detached remote processes

  $ssh->system("nohup $long_running_command &");
