Dear all,
i'm using net:ssh::perl and net::sftp with cygwin and windows XP SP2. Everything is working fine, even the public/private key authentification.

But i'm not able to execute a command like "ifconfig". I get a message that the bash doesn't know the command. Commands like "ls" or "who" can be processed successfully.

What can be the reason for this?

(with $ssh->shell, openssh or local access i can execute this command)

Thanks in advance for your response.

A small code: 

use Net::SSH::Perl;

$user1 = "xxxx";
$host = "aa.bbb.ccc.dd";
my @files = ("$ENV{HOME}/.ssh/tsg");

my $ssh = Net::SSH::Perl->new($host, protocol => 2, cipher => "3des-cb
+c", port => 22, identity_files => \@files);

$ssh->login($user1);

my ($err, $out) = $ssh->cmd("ifconfig");

my @array_daten = split(/\n/,$out);

foreach (@array_daten) {print "$_\n"};

my ($out) = $ssh->cmd("who");

my @array_daten = split(/\n/,$out);

foreach (@array_daten) {print "$_\n"};
