Re^9: Send password in Net::SSH::Expect

It is really the (important) part, yes. In full:

I have checked the variables and they seem to be fine, do you have any specific code in hand to clear them from that sort annoyance?

Bingo! That was it. Thanks, oh venerable monks! Removed it by adding: `$hostname =~ s/\r//g;` [download] Now output shows: `Launching [[ssh -q user@host 'sed -i "s#.*HOSTA#ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc +root@HOSTA#gI" /tmp/test.txt']] at ./key.pl line 81.` [download] And the command is doing what it should. To learn is to struggle.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
