Thanks Tom.
I have tried specifying first SSH2, and then  SSH1.
Interestingly I get the same result.

They HAVE obscured their banner.
But I have asked for them to get some of this info for me.

Will look.  Thanks.  I always forget about rt.cpan.org

will do that next.

Bill's suggestions:

I tried ssh -v and got the following output:

Anyway for me to check for certain from my end if the allow "suppress
shell"?

Seems like we've got a few supporters for Net::SCP::Expect.
So i installed it and tested it out.
It worked on this server!
I've never used this module before, so I've got a couple quick questions
about it:
- Is there any reason to worry about my current servers that work with the
SFTP module working with this SCP module?
- Are there any known "gotchas" with using Net::SCP::Expect?
- Simply put: should it work anywhere clients are expecting to use SFTP?

I do not have any control over the servers that are being programmed for our
servers to connect to.

So I need to program I a way that can handle most/all cases.

Right now we offer local/manual download, HTTP, FTP, & SFTP.

Thanks again for all of the help.
