Re^3: Net::OpenSSH multiple commands

Hi Salva, I believe you are probably the best person to answer this:... I changed the line:

my $output = $ssh->capture({stdin_data =>
"term length 0\nterm width 512\nsh ver\nsh run\nexit\n"});
[download]

to this:

my @Output = $SSH->capture({stdin_data =>
"terminal length 0\nterminal width 512\nshow ip accounting\nexit\n"});
[download]

and I get an error (I think might be caused by openssh) that says "Bad packet length 688328622." (The length numbers change every time I run the code). If i remove some parts of the commands such as "terminal length 0" and run it again, the error goes away. The same goes if I leave "terminal length 0" in there and replace say "show ip accounting" by "show ip route".(no error)

So it seems that a combination of commands will trigger this error. I do have to say though that the output is ok regardless of the error. Would this be another error which I should Ignore? or could this be a bug?

Thanks

This looks like a bug on the router SSH stack. Try to replicate it running the following command from the command line in order to discard Perl or Net::OpenSSH as the cause of the problem. `ssh router <<EOC terminal length 0 terminal width 512 show ip accounting exit EOC` [download] I guess the malfunction is caused by some buffer overflow on the remote shell that is triggered by the longer command line.
