Re^2: run perl script with cmd line in shell

Is there a reason why something like ssh user@server perl - $cmdlinArgtoscrpt < script.pl would not work?

use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper(\@ARGV);

# testing:
$ ssh someserver perl - aoeu snth < localscript.pl
$VAR1 = [
          'aoeu',
          'snth'
        ];

Just wanted to add that due to the way ssh executes commands, you may need to shell-quote your command line arguments twice if they have _any_ odd characters: % ssh someserver perl - "foo bar" < localscript.pl $VAR1 = [ 'foo', 'bar' ]; % ssh someserver perl - "foo (bar)" < localscript.pl bash: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `(' bash: -c: line 0: `perl - foo (bar)' % ssh someserver perl - '"foo (bar)"' < localscript.pl $VAR1 = [ 'foo (bar)' ]; [download]	[reply] [d/l]
