Changes for version 0.05

  • There is a long history behind this module:
    • In order to get it to work correctly I ended becoming the de-facto main maintainer of Net::SSH2, rewriting large parts of it and also fixing lots of bugs in libssh2. That took me two years and a half.
    • In the meantime I have keep adding features to Net::SSH::Any...
  • Ssh_Cmd backend which runs on top of any ssh binary supporting command line flags compatible with the OpenSSH one which are not good enough for Net::OpenSSH as for instance Oracle SSH or the Cygwin openssh package.
  • Plink_Cmd backend which uses the "plink" executable (part of the PuTTY project).
  • Sexec_Cmd backend which uses Bitwise Tunnelier "sexec" utility.
  • Dbclient_Cmd backend which uses the dropbear client "dbclient".
  • Sshg3_Cmd backend which uses the Tectia command line SSH client "sshg3".
  • dpipe support, providing an object able to talk to the remote process both ways.
  • Net::SSH::Any::Test framework which anyhow is able to provide the details of a running SSH server that could be used for testing. This module replaces my old Test::SSH package and includes the backends Remote which tries to connect to localhost; OpenSSH_Daemon which starts a local SSH server in some spare port; Dropbead_Daemon which does the same but using Dropbear and Cygwin that on Windows is able to install the Cygwin OpenSSH package and use it to start a local server.
  • Net::SSH::Any::Test::Isolated which runs Net::SSH::Any::Test in an isolated process so that there are not interferences between the tested module and the test server provider.
  • Net::SSH::Any::Autodetector which is able to find out several properties about the remote machine as operating system and the user shell.
  • Integration with Net::OpenSSH quoters.
  • Documentation is still a WIP.
  • And lots and lots of issues fixed...
