NAME

Net::SSH - Perl extension for secure shell

SYNOPSIS

   use Net::SSH qw(ssh issh sshopen2 sshopen3);
 
 

   ssh('user@hostname', $command);
 
 

   issh('user@hostname', $command);
 
 

   ssh_cmd('user@hostname', $command);
   ssh_cmd( {
     user => 'user',
     host => 'host.name',
     command => 'command',
     args => [ '-arg1', '-arg2' ],
     stdin_string => "string\n",
   } );
 
 

   sshopen2('user@hostname', $reader, $writer, $command);
 
 

   sshopen3('user@hostname', $writer, $reader, $error, $command);
 
 

DESCRIPTION

Simple wrappers around ssh commands.

For an all-perl implementation that does not require the system ssh command, see Net::SSH::Perl instead.

SUBROUTINES

ssh [USER@]HOST, COMMAND [, ARGS ... ]

Calls ssh in batch mode.

issh [USER@]HOST, COMMAND [, ARGS ... ]

Prints the ssh command to be executed, waits for the user to confirm, and (optionally) executes the command.

ssh_cmd [USER@]HOST, COMMAND [, ARGS ... ]

ssh_cmd OPTIONS_HASHREF

Calls ssh in batch mode. Throws a fatal error if data occurs on the command's STDERR. Returns any data from the command's STDOUT.

If using the hashref-style of passing arguments, possible keys are:

   user (optional)
   host (requried)
   command (required)
   args (optional, arrayref)
   stdin_string (optional) - written to the command's STDIN
 
 

sshopen2 [USER@]HOST, READER, WRITER, COMMAND [, ARGS ... ]

Connects the supplied filehandles to the ssh process (in batch mode).

sshopen3 HOST, WRITER, READER, ERROR, COMMAND [, ARGS ... ]

Connects the supplied filehandles to the ssh process (in batch mode).

EXAMPLE

   use Net::SSH qw(sshopen2);
   use strict;
 
 

   my $user = "username";
   my $host = "hostname";
   my $cmd = "command";
 
 

   sshopen2("$user\@$host", *READER, *WRITER, "$cmd") || die "ssh: $!";
 
 

   while (<READER>) {
       chomp();
       print "$_\n";
   }
 
 

   close(READER);
   close(WRITER);
 
 

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: How do you supply a password to connect with ssh within a perl script using the Net::SSH module?

A: You don't. Use RSA or DSA keys. See the ssh-keygen(1) manpage.

Q: My script is ``leaking'' ssh processes.

A: See ``How do I avoid zombies on a Unix system'' in perlfaq8, IPC::Open2, IPC::Open3 and ``waitpid'' in perlfunc.
