* Package name : libnet-ssh-perl-perl

Programming Lang : Perl
Description : Perl interface to the libssh2 library
Net::SSH::Perl is an all-Perl module implementing an SSH (Secure Shell)
client. It is compatible with both the SSH-1 and SSH-2 protocols.
Net::SSH::Perl enables you to simply and securely execute commands on remote
machines, and receive the STDOUT, STDERR, and exit status of that remote
command. It contains built-in support for various methods of authenticating
with the server (password authentication, RSA challenge-response
authentication, etc.). It completely implements the I/O buffering, packet
transport, and user authentication layers of the SSH protocol, and makes use
of external Perl libraries (in the Crypt:: family of modules) to handle
encryption of all data sent across the insecure network. It can also read
your existing SSH configuration files (/etc/ssh_config, etc.), RSA identity
files, DSA identity files, known hosts files, etc.
One advantage to using Net::SSH::Perl over wrapper-style implementations of
ssh clients is that it saves on process overhead: you no longer need to fork
and execute a separate process in order to connect to an sshd. Depending on
the amount of time and memory needed to fork a process, this win can be
quite substantial; particularly if you're running in a persistent Perl
environment (mod_perl, for example), where forking a new process is a drain
on process and memory resources.
It also simplifies the process of using password-based authentications; when
writing a wrapper around ssh you probably need to use Expect to control the
ssh client and give it your password. Net::SSH::Perl has built-in support
for the authentication protocols, so there's no longer any hassle of
communicating with any external processes.
The SSH2 protocol support (present in Net::SSH::Perl as of version 1.00) is
compatible with the SSH2 implementation in OpenSSH, and should also be fully
compatible with the "official" SSH implementation. If you find an SSH2
implementation that is not compatible with Net::SSH::Perl, please let me
know (email address down in AUTHOR & COPYRIGHTS); it turns out that some
SSH2 implementations have subtle differences from others. 3DES (3des-cbc),
Blowfish (blowfish-cbc), and RC4 (arcfour) ciphers are currently supported
for SSH2 encryption, and integrity checking is performed by either the
hmac-sha1 or hmac-md5 algorithms. Compression, if requested, is limited to
Zlib. Supported server host key algorithms are ssh-dss (the default) and
ssh-rsa (requires Crypt::RSA); supported SSH2 public key authentication
algorithms are the same.
