Net::SSH Copyright (c) 2002 Ivan Kohler Copyright (c) 2007 Freeside Internet Services, Inc. All rights reserved. This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. This module implements a Perl interface to ssh. It is a simple wrapper around the system `ssh' command. For a perl implementation that does not require the system B<ssh> command, see L<Net::SSH::Perl> instead. For a wrapper version that allows you to use passwords, see L<Net::SSH::Expect> instead. For another non-forking version that uses the libssh2 library, see L<Net::SSH2>. For a way to execute remote Perl code over an ssh connection see L<IPC::PerlSSH>. To install: perl Makefile.PL make make test # nothing substantial yet make install Documentation will then be available via `man Net:SSH' or `perldoc Net::SSH' Anonymous CVS access is available: $ export CVSROOT=":pserver:anonymous@cleanwhisker.420.am:/home/cvs/cvsroot" $ cvs login (Logging in to anonymous@pouncequick.cleanwhisker.420.am) CVS password: anonymous $ cvs checkout Net-SSH as well as <http://www.420.am/cgi-bin/cvsweb/Net-SSH>. Assitance wanted - this module could really use a maintainer with enough time to at least review and apply more patches. Or the module should just be deprecated in favor of Net::SSH::Expect or made into an ::Any style compatibility wrapper that uses whatver implementation is avaialble (Net::SSH2, Net::SSH::Perl or shelling out like the modules does now).
