Hello Monksters,

I have been having this weird issue with this module and I can't for the life of me figure out why it's doing this. It's a great module but this "problem" is a show stopper for me.

The problem is that at some point it seems that the last command doesn't get run and the output get's cut short. This only happens maybe every 10 or 20 runs of the code. So 99% of the time, it works and I get all of the output as expected. I have enabled the debug and when it happens, I can't identify in the debug information where the problem is.(I can post the debug information but it is extremely long) Here is the code in case I made a mistake somewhere or in case there is something that I can add in there.(the command that fails intermittently is "sh ip accounting")

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Net::Appliance::Session;
use strict;

my $host = "10.0.0.1";

my $s = Net::Appliance::Session->new({
    personality => 'ios',
    transport => 'SSH',
    host => "10.0.0.1"
});

$s->set_global_log_at('debug');

eval {
    $s->connect();

        my @TempArr =  $s->cmd('sh run');
        my $TempArr_ref = \@TempFile;
        push ( @{ $TempArr_ref }, $s->cmd('sh tech'));
        push ( @{ $TempArr_ref }, $s->cmd('sh ip accounting'));
        print "@{ $TempArr_ref }\n";
};
if ($@) {
    warn "failed to execute command: $@";
}

$s->close;

Any help is appreciated. Marc.
