I'm not using Net::SSH::Perl, I'm using Net::SSH2.  Net::SSH::Perl can't
connect to several of our machines, but Net::SSH2 can.  Also, using
Net::SSH2's ->cmd method still doesn't give me 'real time' reading of
the outputs.  I *do* want to do something like what ->cmd does
eventually, for really stupid easy stuff where we don't really care
about the output until it's done (or commands that are *really* quick)
but in the mean time I'm trying to get the realtime stuff working.
