    Don't do 
    $ssh->login('$user','$pass');

    That will send the literal strings $user and $pass, NOT the value of the variables.

    Also, you probably shouldn't put a name and password in your script at all. SSH has much better ways of dealing with authentication.

    In any case I expect that that isn't the real code you're actually running, which might or might not make a difference. Can you log in from that machine using another SSH client?

    Update: Try removing the "/bin/bash" part, i.e, do: 

    my($stdout, $stderr, $exit) = $ssh->cmd("/bin/ls -lrt");

    Please read in your other thread on the same about things that can go wrong, and give us details about the remote machine (OS? version? ssh version?) and your environment there (login shell?). Are you able to login with e.g putty?

    Also, try sending a single command without arguments, e.g. ls or pwd.

    --shmem 

    _($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                              /\_¯/(q    /

      os is AIX 5.2 and Net::SSH::Perl Version 1.29, protocol version 2.0.
      yes iam login with Putty and do the things also ..

        What is your login shell? (type echo $SHELL at the command line prompt)
