Hello,

I've been playing with the Net:SSH::Perl module and have had success
with it working, except when I try to login to my Redhat Enterprise box
using ssh-keys.  I am able to login with keys using the ssh executable,
but not with my little test script, and this appears to be only with
this server.  Perhaps there is some sort of incompatibility?  Here is my
script:

- -- program begin --
#!/usr/local/bin/perl

use strict;
use Net::SSH::Perl;

my $host = $ARGV[0] || 'server2';

print "Command: ";
chomp(my $cmd=<STDIN>);
$cmd ||= 'ls -alF';

my $ssh = Net::SSH::Perl->new(  $host,
~                                identity_files =>
				[ '/home/user/.ssh/identity' ],
~                                debug => 1);
$ssh->login('user');
my ($stdout, $stderr, $exit) = $ssh->cmd($cmd);
print $stdout;
- -- program end --

Here is the debug output:

server1: Reading configuration data /home/user/.ssh/config

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.
