Erm, all I know is that I use a Putty session to connect (via port 22, I've just checked it). I enter user= root and the password and hey presto I am in. I want to do just this is in a script!

Anyway this is what I've tried

use Net::SSH qw(sshopen2);
  use strict;

  my $user = "root";
  my $host = "149.195.49.155";
  my $cmd = "ls -l";

  sshopen2("$user\@$host", *READER, *WRITER, "$cmd") || die "ssh: $!";

  while (<READER>) {
      chomp();
      print "$_\n";
  }

  close(READER);
  close(WRITER);

And this is what I got!!:

C:\Scripts>esx_conn3.pl
'ssh' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

An example code would be great.

Does this help? Cheers.

By default SSH runs on port 22, so yes you need to connect using the SSH protocol. Regards example code, did you read the documentation? There are examples there. The error message you are getting is because you have: `use Net::SSH qw(sshopen2);` when you want something like: `use Net::SSH qw(ssh issh sshopen2 sshopen3);`. Again, read the documentation for a further information and example code. Update: Crapola, please ignore the part of this post which has been struck out. Thanks to ikegami for pointing out my mistake. Hope this helps Martin	[reply] [d/l] [select]

He's not using `ssh`, `issh` or `sshopen3`, so he doesn't need to import those. It looks like the library is trying to use the external utility `ssh`, but cannot locate it. Is that one of the module's dependacies?	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Gadzooks, I was too hastey. From the documentation: For an all-perl implementation that does not require the system ssh command, see Net::SSH::Perl instead. Martin	[reply]
