in reply to POE::Component::RemoteTail - Can't locate object method new

As I'm delving deeper into this module, I'm finding various situations that the module running the standard ssh command, doesn't address too well. I'm planning on provide the author with code modification suggestions.

-Hangs on exec errors (ssh isn't in path or executable). I think this is due to not closing the POE wheel properly (Rocco?).
-No warnings or errors are currently being printed out on exec errors.
-No way to add command line options to the ssh command to be run
-Needs expanded debug statements.

Please add to this thread any additional issues you may find, and I'll try to condense it into a group of suggestions for the author.

Thanks

-Craig

Update:
-The existing Net::SSH::Perl custom engine will only work with SSH protocol 2 as written.

    Hi! My name is Takeshi Miki, author of POE::Component::RemoteTail.

    Thank you for your suggestions.
    I uploaded the version of improved ones to CPAN a moment ago. I was not able to apply all of your suggestion, but lost the clear bug.

    Check it out and enjoy!

    thanks.
