[Ssh-sftp-perl-users] Recieving EOF from client via Net::SSH::Perl

[Chaun K. <scu...@ho...>]

Hello,  I'm new to the list and am having a small problem with 
Net::SSH::Perl.  I have a chunk of code that needs to be run on a remote 
machine via SSH2 and general commands that I am using seem to run fine.

The problem I am having originates from an interactive form that pops up 
when I execute the p4 submit command.  When I am logged into the server I 
can issue the command just like it is described in my code snippet, however, 
I need to complete it by pressing CTRL-D.  I though that I could do the same 
thing in my Perl script with the /cD syntax, but from the output of the 
Net::SSH::Perl session below, it just hangs, seemingly waiting for "channel 
4: rcvd eof"

Thanks for any help you could offer, I don't see much on Google for this 
Module.

Here is my code snippet:

[snip]
   ($sshout, $ssherr, $sshexit) = $ssh->cmd("p4 add 
/path/to/file/Sample.jpg");
             $sshout_p4add = $sshout;
             $ssherr_p4add = $ssherr;
             $sshexit_p4add = $sshexit;
            ($sshout, $ssherr, $sshexit) = $ssh->cmd("p4 submit -i\nChange: 
new\nClient: all_username\nUser:   username\nStatus: new\nDescription: 
tTrack Issue: 3390\nFiles: //path/to/file/Sample.jpg   # add\n\cD");
             $sshout_p4sub = $sshout;
             $ssherr_p4sub = $ssherr;
             $sshexit_p4sub = $sshexit;
[end snip]


Here is the output from the Net:SSH::Perl session
