. I gave this a shot in my environment with positive results. This is on a Linux box running v5.22.1

Most of the code is from the Synopsis on MCPAN. I tried this connecting to both a regular Linux box and a Raspberry Pi. The Pi does not have keys set up on it, but the Linux box does. I thought perhaps the auth method might be a problem when a uname/passwd combo is handed to a machine which is expecting a ssh key. But that is apparently not a problem.

Anyway, the code itself is tested and functions in my environment so, that may give you a known starting point.

Hope that is somehow helpful...

Edit:

I have not used Net::SSH previously, so this is a learning experience for me. Zentara's post is a good one. Also, there is this node which provides some really good examples to try -> A little demo for Net::SSH2

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Modern::Perl;
#removed no strict refs from here after originally posting....
use Net::SSH2;
my ( %login, $login);
my $ssh2 = Net::SSH2->new();
$login = %login;
$login{'user'}='***';
$login{'password'} ='*******';
$ssh2->connect('192.168.0.15') or $ssh2->die_with_error ;
$ssh2->auth_password($login{user}, $login{password}) ;
$ssh2->auth_ok() ;
####
print "Logged in\n" ;
####
my $chan = $ssh2->channel() or ssh2->die_with_error ;
my $cmd = $chan->exec('ls');
my $sftp = $ssh2->sftp();
####
my $fh = $sftp->open('.bashrc') or $sftp->die_with_error;
say $_ while <$fh>;
$ssh2->disconnect();

...the majority is always wrong, and always the last to know about it...

A solution is nothing more than a clearly stated problem...
