From the top of your head - do you know why would Net::OpenSSH->new() hang forever after getting "Permission denied, please try again." ?

Also I found that some characters in the passwords have to be escaped. Like @ and !. Otherwise it does not even get that "Permission denied, please try again." error. I'm not sure if I did escape ! the right way. May be that contributes to that hanging problem I am having.

I've tried $Net::OpenSSH::debug and all I see is : 

Permission denied, please try again.
# file object not yet found at ....

[download]
Last line repeats indefinitely

The problem I'm stuck with is : first I'm trying public key auth which fails because there is no key yet. Then I try ssh with password and get "Permission denied". But new call never returns...
