I don't suppose you've got any examples you can point me to?
This works for me on Windows Vista, connecting to a local linux box.
use warnings;
use strict;
use Net::SSH2;
my $buflen = 100;
my $buf = '0' x $buflen;
my $ssh2 = Net::SSH2->new();
$ssh2->connect('192.168.0.3')
or die "Unable to connect Host $@ \n";
$ssh2->auth_password('user','password')
or die "Unable to login $@ \n";
my $chan2 = $ssh2->channel();
$chan2->blocking(1);
$chan2->exec('pwd');
$chan2->read($buf, $buflen);
print $buf;
$chan2->close;
Allocating $buf like I've done above is not really necessary - the following should work just as well:
use warnings;
use strict;
use Net::SSH2;
my $ssh2 = Net::SSH2->new();
$ssh2->connect('192.168.0.3')
or die "Unable to connect Host $@ \n";
$ssh2->auth_password('user','password')
or die "Unable to login $@ \n";
my $chan2 = $ssh2->channel();
$chan2->blocking(1);
$chan2->exec('pwd');
$chan2->read(my $buf, 100);
print $buf;
$chan2->close;
See also the
the Net::SSH2 test script for some examples of usage.
Cheers,
