Wise Monks, I have been trying to use Net::OpenSSH to create shared pipes across a SSH session. These are used to pass simple ASCII messages back and forth across servers. In total, there are 8 of these SSH sessions created using Net::OpenSSH as such: 

my %con_opts;
$con_opts{host} = $host;
$con_opts{timeout} = 120;
$con_opts{async} = 1;
$ssh{'SSH'} = Net::OpenSSH->new(%con_opts);

# For Net::OpenSSH need to specify whether to create
# pipes or not, default is no pipes.
my %opts;
$opts{stdin_pipe} = 1;
$opts{stdout_pipe} = 1;
$opts{stderr_to_stdout} = 1;
# Kick off the script on the remote machine
($ssh{'STDIN'}, $ssh{'STDOUT'}, undef, $ssh{'PID'}) =
        $ssh{'SSH'}->open_ex(\%opts, $script)
            or die "Error ".$ssh{$host}->error;

And the STDOUT pipe is setup to be read asynchronously: 
my $Q = new Thread::Queue;
# Kick this off asynchronously to put things into the
# queue to read whenever we get to it
async{
    while(<$pipe>)
    {
        $Q->enqueue( $_ );
    }
    $Q->enqueue( undef );
}->detach;
return $Q;

The problem is that seemingly at random, a (or more than 1) Net::OpenSSH SSH session will just terminate. This forces *all* existing Net::OpenSSH SSH sessions to terminate.

Wise Monks, any idea what's going on here to cause the premature exits? Many Thanks
