Respected Perl Monks,

I was using Net::SSH2 perl module for connecting to remote system and executing fews command there.

With the new requirement in the project, we had to switch user using su command to a previllaged user and execute few privileaged commands there.

We are connected to remote system using normal user with Net::SSH2 function and here is the below code 

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

        eval {$ssh2->connect($rip) ; };

        if( $@ )
        {print qq{ Error: Cannot connect to $rip : SSH service Failed 
+}; exit 1; }

        return "Error: Authenticate fail for $rip" unless $ssh2->auth(
+username => $rusr,password=>$rpwd);


        $chan2 = $ssh2->channel;
        die "Can not create a shell on channel " unless $chan2->shell;
        die "Can not set blocking field " unless $chan2->blocking(0);

        $chan2->ext_data('merge');
        $ssh2->auth(username => $rusr,password=>$rpwd);

But after we connect using a normal user and try to switch to a privileged user for which the below is the continued code 

        print $chan2 "su $user2 \n";
        print $chan2 "$pass2 \n";

when we execute this script it is giving the following output:

<code> standard in must be a tty </code

Can any one suggest me how to integrate this switching of user using Net::SSH2

Thanks in advance,

Work Hard Party Harderrr!!
