Is that code snippet the one you are running? I doubt it, since
- you would get the error Undefined subroutine &main::login had you called 'login' as a function:
login("xxxx","xxxx");
If your $ssh object was undefined, you would get the error
Can't call method "login" on an undefined value
- the call to the login method occurs at line 4, not line 6
- since you haven't defined $hostname you ought to get the error:
Net::SSH: Bad host name: at foo.pl line 3
Furthermore, it's a good idea to ping the machine first, and then attempt to ssh into it.
Last but not least don't double-quote single variables as in the useless interpolation
Net::SSH::Perl->new ("$hostname");
Say rather
Net::SSH::Perl->new ($hostname);
--shmem

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).
