Hi, all<snip>
I am writing a perl script running on the XP, the machine already
have openssh installed. The script would call ssh command and send a
command to the remote host.
The code like.
However right after I made the system call for ssh, it prompts for the
password.
c:\>perl my.pl
Invoke command on host : somehost
enter password: <--- my program stopped right here waiting.
I understood that perl provides pm packages (in this case SSH) to
get this work done, but the script I am going to run, only will get
the perl installed and perl.dll, not extra module.
You can use PAR (from CPAN) to package a script plus all dependant
modules up into a single file that can be run with just perl installed.
It's really not worth avoiding the use of modules.
My question is:
1) Is that a way I can feed it the password without install any
module?, if so, how?
No. However, you can switch to public-key authentication, which doesn't
require you enter the password.
2) Or where I can find out more regarding input after prompt
waiting?
Err... under Unix, the answer is 'use a pty'. I don't know if it is even
possible to emulate this under Win32: it depends on exactly how ssh
prompts for the password.
