require interactive ssh?
You mean setting up "login-less" public key authentication is not an
option? A google search on "openssh public key authentication" will
turn up documentation like the following:
http://cfm.gs.washington.edu/security/ssh/client-pkauth/
FYI: Net::SSH won't help with interactive logins. Using pre-
configured RSA or DSA keys is a prerequisite. It's in the Net::SSH
docs in the FAQ:
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Net-SSH/
SSH.pm#FREQUENTLY_ASKED_QUESTIONS
regular unix login?
If by that you mean execute something locally using different
credentials... you might try:
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Sudo/lib/Sudo.pm
I've never used it. But it might do what you need.
cheers,
Garrett
