Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi,

I am trying to run the below command in perl but when the perl script is executed it prompts a error message saying " ssh: <username>: Name or service not known ". Not able to understand this as this command runs perfectly on the server prompt.

` ssh <username>@pus4026dev df -k >> hufs_check.txt `;

My intention of running this command from perl script is to copy the mounts on the server pus4026dev to file hufs_check.txt.

Thanks

In order to execute system command via perl you need to put this with "system" command like :

Code:

system ("your-command '$any-variables' ");

don't forget to put a backslash before the @.

Code:

#!/usr/bin/perl
system ("ssh user\@server $some_command");
