Don't know about your problem. What's the error? (include $! in your error message).

The following isn't very safe: 

my $cmd1 = "cat /etc/passwd";
my $sshcmd = "/usr/bin/ssh -t -i \$HOME/.ssh/mypubkey -o 'StrictHostKe
+yChecking no' user\@host $cmd1";
open(IFILE, "$sshcmd |") || die "Bad open";

my @cmd = (cat => (
    '/etc/passwd',
));

my @sshcmd = ('/usr/bin/ssh' => (
    -t => (),
    -i => "$HOME/.ssh/mypubkey",
    -o => 'StrictHostKeyChecking no',
    'user@host',
    @cmd
));

open(my $fr_ssh, '-|', @sshcmd)
    or die("Can't fork and pipe: $!\n");
