Net::SFTP. Script hangs. Bad repository?

Kirill has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello, guys.
I'm working with perl now and i've faced with a problem with creating the script for connecting to SFTP server using perl modules Net::SFTP and Net::SSH::W32Perl. I would be really glad, if you could help me. I've spent a lot of days trying to solve my problem. I'm creating a script for copying the file from my local machine to a remote host via SFTP. The problem is that after loginning to server the program hangs on:

channel 1: open confirm rwindow 0 rmax 32768

I've searched a lot about this and I figured out that for escaping this problem I need to installing SFTP and SSH modules from repository on the website http://www.soulcage.net/ppds/ can solve this problem. But this website does not exist any more. So I was wondering, may be someone know where to find these modules, so my programm would work. Cause I've tried a lot of them from different repositories, but it didn't help me. Or may be there's any other way to solve this. I would appreciate any help.
Here's the script:

#!usr/local/bin/perl -w
use Net::SSH::W32Perl;
use Net::SFTP;

BEGIN {
  $ENV{HOME} = $ENV{APPDATA} || $ENV{USERPROFILE}
}

print "\nTryin' to connect. Please wait...\n";
my $login="****";
my $pass="****";
my $host='***.***.***.***';
my @args=(user => $login,
          password  =>  $pass,
          ssh_args  =>  [port=>22, debug => 1]);

my $localfile='D:\\test.txt';
my $remotefile='/folder1/folder2/folder3/folder4/folder5';

my $sftp;

$sftp=Net::SFTP->new($host, @args);
$sftp->error and die "Connection failed: " . $sftp->error;

print "\nConnection was established successfully\n";
$sftp->put($localfile, $remotefile) or die "Can't put file: $!\n";
$sftp->close() or die "Disconnect error: $!\n";

print "ok";

Here's the log:

See Net:sftp module is slow and hangs Since you are new, I will point out that the preferred module to use now for ssh2 related operations, like sftp, scp, etc. is Net::SSH2. Google for "install Net::SSH2 windows] and see A little demo for Net::SSH2. The SSH2 developers recommend that people move up to Net::SSH2, as the old libs are being slowly phased out and less supported. I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth.

Thanks a lot, zentara. You helped me so much! I've tried SSH2 and it works perfectly. The problem is solved. Thanks again!	[reply]

Start with simple things: can you transfer files with the `scp` command line client, with the same user name and ssh key? If not, it could be something as simple as a hanging network file system on the server side. Perl 6 - links to (nearly) everything that is Perl 6.	[reply] [d/l]

I cleaned it up. Try this: `#!perl use strict; use warnings; use Net::SFTP; my $host = 'localhost'; my $user = 'user'; my $pass = 'password'; my %args = ( user => $user, password => $pass, port => 22, debug => 1 ); my $local = 'D:\\test.txt'; my $remote = '/dir1/dir2/test.txt'; my $sftp = Net::SFTP->new($host, %args); die "Can't put file: $!\n" unless $sftp->put($local, $remote); close $local;` [download] Update: Fixed typo.
