The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 0.61

  • changed in_leftover implementation and name. The method is now named incoming_data, and the implementation is a Net::SSH::Perl::Buffer object.
  • changed to using non-blocking sockets. Net::SSH::Perl::Packet added a read_poll method, which doesn't block; read still blocks (using select).
  • added shell connection functionality, and abstracted out interactive session code a bit better. Added pty support. In the future 'shell' could conceivably be used to execute multiple commands over the same ssh connection.
  • added 3DES as fallback cipher if IDEA isn't supported.
  • _check_host_in_hostfile now returns HOST_NEW if the hostfile can't be opened, consistent with how ssh and openssh work.
