SSH probably has the option to allow root logins turned off. For OpenSSH, edit the config file (sshd_config somewhere below /etc), find the "PermitRootLogin" line, and set that option to yes. Reload the config and you should be good to go.

Hi,
I need to access a user's command history. However, the dilemma is that he is logged in and so his current history is not yet flushed to .bash_history file which gets flushed when he logs out. Is there a way I can still access his most recent history?
thank you,

Net::OpenSSH::Compat::Perl(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::OpenSSH::Compat::Perl(3pm)
NAME
Net::OpenSSH::Compat::Perl - Net::OpenSSH adapter for Net::SSH::Perl API compatibility
SYNOPSIS
use Net::OpenSSH::Compat::Perl qw(:supplant);
use Net::SSH::Perl;
my $ssh = Net::SSH::Perl->new('host');
$ssh->login($user, $passwd);
my ($out, $err, $rc) = $ssh->cmd($cmd);
DESCRIPTION
This module implements a subset of Net::SSH::Perl API on top of Net::OpenSSH.
After the module is loaded as...
use Net::OpenSSH::Compat::Perl qw(:supplant);
... it supplants the Net::SSH::Perl module as if it were installed on the machine using Net::OpenSSH under the hood to handle SSH
operations.
Setting defaults
The hash %Net::OpenSSH::Compat::Perl::DEFAULTS can be used to set default values for Net::OpenSSH and other modules called under the hood
and otherwise not accesible through the Net::SSH::Perl API.
The entries currently supported are:
connection => [ %opts ]
Extra options passed to "Net::OpenSSH::new" constructor.
Example:
$Net::OpenSSH::Compat::SSH::Perl::DEFAULTS{connection} =
[ ssh_path => "/opt/SSH/bin/ssh" ];
BUGS AND SUPPORT
This is a work in progress.
"register_handler" method is not supported.
Net::SSH::Perl submodules (i.e. Net::SSH::Perl::Channel) are not emulated.
Anyway, if your Net::SSH::Perl script fails, fill a bug report at the CPAN RT bugtracker
(https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Create.html?Queue=Net-OpenSSH-Compat <https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Create.html?Queue=Net-OpenSSH-Compat>) or just
send me an e-mail with the details.
Include at least:
1 - The full source of the script
2 - A description of what happens in your machine
3 - What you thing it should be happening
4 - What happens when you use the real Net::SSH::Perl
5 - The version and name of your operating system
6 - The version of the OpenSSH ssh client installed on your machine ("ssh -V")
7 - The Perl version ("perl -V")
8 - The versions of the Perl packages Net::OpenSSH, IO::Pty and this Net::OpenSSH::Compat.
