Thanks for the suggestion but i have to use identity file and i could not find any option for specifying the same (while creating connection) in either of the modules.

      Thanks! I tried using Net::OpenSSH with key_path option. 
      my $key_path = "/home/tom/.ssh/id_file";
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new(
                            $host,
                            key_path => $key_path,
        );

$ssh->scp_put("$war_full_path", "$ENV{HOME}") or die "SCP failed: " . 
+$ssh->error;

      Now it fails with the message:
      Permission denied (publickey).
      SCP failed: unable to establish master SSH connection: master process exited unexpectedly at /home/tom/deploy.pl line 64

      Line 64 is the above line where i am using scp_put

        Are you able to log from the command line? 
        ssh -vv -i "/home/tom/.ssh/id_file" hostname
