Cygwin implements getpwuid. If you are using ActiveState, which doesn't implement getpwuid, then you'll probably have to go into the source at C:/Perl/site/lib/Net/SSH/Perl/SSH2.pm with your editor and change sub _proto_init to this
sub _proto_init { 
    my $ssh = shift; 
my $home = $ENV{HOME} || $ENV{USERNAME}; 
    unless ($ssh->{config}->get('user_known_hosts')) { 
        defined $home or croak "Cannot determine home directory, pleas
+e set the environment variable HOME"; 
        $ssh->{config}->set('user_known_hosts', "$home/.ssh/known_host
+s2"); 
}

my $home should read:
my $home = $ENV{HOME} || $ENV{USERNAME};
