SSH(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation SSH(3pm) 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 ", } ); 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: $!"; while (<READER>) { chomp(); print "$_ "; } 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 (at least not with this module). Use RSA or DSA keys. See the quick help in the next section and the ssh-keygen(1) manpage. A #2: See Net::SSH::Expect instead. 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. GENERATING AND USING SSH KEYS
1 Generate keys Type: ssh-keygen -t rsa And do not enter a passphrase unless you wanted to be prompted for one during file copying. Here is what you will see: $ ssh-keygen -t rsa Generating public/private rsa key pair. Enter file in which to save the key (/home/User/.ssh/id_rsa): Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): Enter same passphrase again: Your identification has been saved in /home/User/.ssh/id_rsa. Your public key has been saved in /home/User/.ssh/id_rsa.pub. The key fingerprint is: 5a:cd:2b:0a:cd:d9:15:85:26:79:40:0c:55:2a:f4:23 User@JEFF-CPU 2 Copy public to machines you want to upload to "id_rsa.pub" is your public key. Copy it to "~/.ssh" on target machine. Put a copy of the public key file on each machine you want to log into. Name the copy "authorized_keys" (some implementations name this file "authorized_keys2") Then type: chmod 600 authorized_keys Then make sure your home dir on the remote machine is not group or world writeable. AUTHORS
Ivan Kohler <ivan-netssh_pod@420.am> Assistance wanted - this module could really use a maintainer with enough time to at least review and apply more patches. Or the module should just be deprecated in favor of Net::SSH::Expect or made into an ::Any style compatibility wrapper that uses whatver implementation is avaialble (Net::SSH2, Net::SSH::Perl or shelling out like the module does now). Please email Ivan if you are interested in helping. John Harrison <japh@in-ta.net> contributed an example for the documentation. Martin Langhoff <martin@cwa.co.nz> contributed the ssh_cmd command, and Jeff Finucane <jeff@cmh.net> updated it and took care of the 0.04 release. Anthony Awtrey <tony@awtrey.com> contributed a fix for those still using OpenSSH v1. Thanks to terrence brannon <tbone@directsynergy.com> for the documentation in the GENERATING AND USING SSH KEYS section. COPYRIGHT

Not OO. Look at IPC::Session (also fsh, well now the native SSH "master mode" stuff) SEE ALSO
