in reply to Net::SSH::Perl script in windows - getpwuid is unimplemented

If you are on Windows, then you'll need to use Net::SSH::W32Perl. Try this instead:
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use Net::SSH::W32Perl;

my $host = 'localhost';
my $user = 'user';
my $pass = 'password';
my $cmd  = 'perldoc -f getpwuid';

my $ssh = Net::SSH::W32Perl->new(
          $host, 
          debug => 1,
          protocol => 2
);
$ssh->login($user, $pass);

my($stdout, $stderr, $exit) = $ssh->cmd($cmd);
print $stdout, "\n";

exit;

    Hi, I tried this W32perl module also. This is also giving the same error. The getpwuid function is unimplemented at C:/Perl/site/lib/Net/SSH/Perl/SSH2.pm line 39, <GEN0> line 1. Thanks, Thiru

      You didn't use Net::SSH::Win32Perl. Look a little closer at the error. The getpwuid function isn't implemented. That means don't try to run getpwuid. Try $ENV{USERNAME} instead.

my $host = 'host';
my $pass = 'pwd';
my $user = 'userid';
my $cmd  = 'command';

my $ssh = new Net::SSH::W32Perl(
          $host, 
          debug => 1,
          protocol => 2
);

      Install Math::Pari?

      Anyway, nowadays you should probably be using Net::SSH2. If you are using Strawberry Perl, it is already included. Check also Net::SSH::Any.
