NAME

Net::SSH::W32Perl - Win32 compatibility layer for Net::SSH::Perl

SYNOPSIS

use Net::SSH::W32Perl;

my $host = 'foo.bar.com';
my $ssh = new Net::SSH::W32Perl($host, [options]); $ssh->login('user', 'password');
my ($out, $err, $exit) = $ssh->cmd('cat', 'Hello W32 User!');

INSTALLATION

perl Makefile.PL
nmake
nmake test
nmake install

NOTE: I've made ppms (binaries) available for this and most of it's required modules at http://www.soulcage.net/ppds/. The following command should install everything you need.

"ppm install --location=http://www.soulcage.net/ppds Net::SSH::W32Perl"

ABSTRACT

This module provides limited Net::SSH::Perl functionality under Win32 (ActivePerl).

LIMITATIONS

• SSH2 is the only supported protocol due to Net::SSH::Perl's reliance on Math::GMP.
• The "shell()" interface is not supported due to Win32's lack of support for "select()" on non-socket filehandles.
• The privileged option is not supported, I hope to fix this in a future release.
• Anything else that doesn't work :)

TO DO

Create some tests, fix "privileged", etc...
