Re^2: Net::OpenSSH multiple commands

Thanks Salva for your response

I'm running

Fedora release 9 (Sulphur)

Perl v5.10.0 built for i386-linux-thread-multi

openssh-5.1p1

Local SSH client is OpenSSH_5.1p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007

Remote SSH server is OpenSSH_2.5.2p2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0

Debug output is as follows:

# call args: ['ssh','-S','/home/cstrong/.libnet-openssh-perl/root-10.2
+24.138.142-26522-522395','-o','User=root','--','10.224.138.142','ps -

Sorry, forgot to say that the debug ouput just posted is shown after the output of the first "ps -ef" - i.e. the important bit!	[reply]

Remote SSH server is OpenSSH_2.5.2p2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0 That's quite old (~2001) and probably the cause of your problems... the only workaround besides upgrading the server would be to open a new connection for every command. Anyway, you (or the corresponding party) should upgrade the server software even if only for security reasons!	[reply]

I know it's an old thread but... I'm having the exact same issue, what exactly do you mean with "to open a new conection"? Do you mean using the new method once more? Thanks in advance!	[reply]

For every command you want to run on the remote host, create a new Net::OpenSSH object.	[reply]
