[Ssh-sftp-perl-users] net::ssh::perl error handling

[fred s. <Fre...@6p...>]

Hi

im working on a script that uses Net::SSH::Perl
The problem is that i dont know how to handle errors properly.
When the script tries to connect to a host that has no sshd running=20
or is completly down then the script exits with a error like:

Can't connect to x.x.x.x, port 22: Connection timed out at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Net/SSH/Perl.pm line 206.

but it would be much nicer if the error would be stored in a var and
the script continues.
Or at least it should die with a proper message.
i tried something like:

$ssh =3D Net::SSH::Perl->new($host) || die "error connecting to $host";

but had no success :/

any help is welcome
