Hello,
I need to run some X programs on remote machine (ssh connection, public key authentication) from my script. It is actually xterm with some data output. I need to have xterm window opened on my local (Linux) machine.
I tried passing -X or -Y ssh options in "new" using default_ssh_opts like this: 
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host,
                    default_ssh_opts => ['-Y']);
my $cmd = 'xterm';
$ssh->system($cmd) or die "Failed to run command: ". $ssh->error;

[download]
and also without quotes, but this does not work (the xterm complains DISPLAY is not set).
How could it be done (if at all)?
