Hi

"....Are you sure you have the correct protocol? Are you actually usin
+g SSH? "

Erm, all I know is that I use a Putty session to connect (via port 22, I've just checked it). I enter user= root and the password and hey presto I am in. I want to do just this is in a script!

Anyway this is what I've tried 
use Net::SSH qw(sshopen2);
  use strict;

  my $user = "root";
  my $host = "149.195.49.155";
  my $cmd = "ls -l";

  sshopen2("$user\@$host", *READER, *WRITER, "$cmd") || die "ssh: $!";

  while (<READER>) {
      chomp();
      print "$_\n";
  }

  close(READER);
  close(WRITER);

And this is what I got!!: 
C:\Scripts>esx_conn3.pl
'ssh' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

An example code would be great.

Does this help? Cheers.
