I use ActivePerl+Net::SSH2 on WinXP to execute perlscript to remote hosts. 1. Connect to remote host $ssh->open(); 2. Open channel, start shell, $chan = $ssh->channel(); 3. Issue commands through the channel.. $chan->shell(); when I issue shell commands ie. "who" to the Linux machine, the data comes back through the channel. <$chan> I am using the linux machine as a jumpbox to further SSH to some cisco IOS switches. (firewall restriction) The problem I encounter is, when I issue "ssh -l username 10.1.1.1", nothing comes back through the channel. My script waits for a "Password:" which never reaches the channel. Any suggestions? PS. Same script works fine when issuing Cisco commands to directly SSH connected cisco switches.
