Hi Monks,
I am a beginner in perl, i am trying to get a file from remote machine using Net::SSH2 scp_get method. To get a small size file it's working fine, but when i try for getting any file greater than 1.5 MB then it gives a error message and quits or it just hangs up continuously & at times it even fails for small files also, can you please let me know where am i going wrong in implementing the script.

my $ssh2 = Net::SSH2->new();

$ssh2->debug(1);

$ssh2->connect($host) or die " Cannot connect to 219 ";

die " Username/password is wrong " unless $ssh2->auth(username=>$user,
+ password=>$password);

$ssh2->scp_get('/path/somefile');

print " Successfully copied \n";

print $ssh2->error;

$ssh2->disconnect();
