9 This module implements a Perl interface to ssh. It is a simple wrapper around
10 the system `ssh' command. For a perl implementation that does not require
11 the system B<ssh> command, see L<Net::SSH::Perl> instead. For a wrapper
12 version that allows you to use passwords, see L<Net::SSH::Expect> instead.
13 For another non-forking version that uses the libssh2 library, see
14 L<Net::SSH2>. For a way to execute remote Perl code over an ssh connection
20 make test # nothing substantial yet
23 Documentation will then be available via `man Net:SSH' or `perldoc Net::SSH'
25 Anonymous CVS access is available:
26 $ export CVSROOT=":pserver:anonymous@cleanwhisker.420.am:/home/cvs/cvsroot"
28 (Logging in to anonymous@pouncequick.cleanwhisker.420.am)
29 CVS password: anonymous
30 $ cvs checkout Net-SSH
31 as well as <http://www.420.am/cgi-bin/cvsweb/Net-SSH>.
33 Assitance wanted - this module could really use a maintainer with enough time
34 to at least review and apply more patches. Or the module should just be
35 deprecated in favor of Net::SSH::Expect or made into an ::Any style
36 compatibility wrapper that uses whatver implementation is avaialble
37 (Net::SSH2, Net::SSH::Perl or shelling out like the modules does now). Please
38 email if you are interested in helping.
