=head1 DESCRIPTION
Net::OpenSSH is a secure shell client package implemented on top of
OpenSSH binary client (C<ssh>).
=head2 Under the hood
This package is implemented around the multiplexing feature found in
later versions of OpenSSH. That feature allows one to run several
sessions over a single SSH connection (OpenSSH 4.1 was the first
one to provide all the required functionality).
When a new Net::OpenSSH object is created, the OpenSSH C<ssh> client
is run in master mode, establishing a persistent (for the lifetime of
the object) connection to the server.
Then, every time a new operation is requested a new C<ssh> process is
started in slave mode, effectively reusing the master SSH connection
to send the request to the remote side.
=head2 Net::OpenSSH Vs. Net::SSH::.* modules
Why should you use Net::OpenSSH instead of any of the other Perl SSH
clients available?
Well, this is my (biased) opinion:
L<Net::SSH::Perl|Net::SSH::Perl> is not well maintained nowadays
(update: a new maintainer has stepped in so this situation could
change!!!), requires a bunch of modules (some of them very difficult
to install) to be acceptably efficient and has an API that is limited
in some ways.
L<Net::SSH2|Net::SSH2> is much better than Net::SSH::Perl, but not
completely stable yet. It can be very difficult to install on some
specific operating systems and its API is also limited, in the same
way as L<Net::SSH::Perl|Net::SSH::Perl>.
Using L<Net::SSH::Expect|Net::SSH::Expect>, in general, is a bad
idea. Handling interaction with a shell via Expect in a generic way
just can not be reliably done.
Net::SSH is just a wrapper around any SSH binary commands available on
the machine. It can be very slow as they establish a new SSH
connection for every operation performed.
In comparison, Net::OpenSSH is a pure perl module that does not have
any mandatory dependencies (obviously, besides requiring OpenSSH
binaries).
Net::OpenSSH has a very perlish interface. Most operations are
performed in a fashion very similar to that of the Perl builtins and
common modules (e.g. L<IPC::Open2|IPC::Open2>).
It is also very fast. The overhead introduced by launching a new ssh
process for every operation is not appreciable (at least on my Linux
box). The bottleneck is the latency intrinsic to the protocol, so
Net::OpenSSH is probably as fast as an SSH client can be.
Being based on OpenSSH is also an advantage: a proved, stable, secure
(to paranoid levels), inseparably and well maintained implementation
of the SSH protocol is used.
On the other hand, Net::OpenSSH does not work on Windows, not even
under Cygwin.
Net::OpenSSH specifically requires the OpenSSH SSH client (AFAIK, the
multiplexing feature is not available from any other SSH
client). However, note that it will interact with any server software,
not just servers running OpenSSH C<sshd>.
For password authentication, L<IO::Pty|IO::Pty> has to be
installed. Other modules and binaries are also required to implement
specific functionality (for instance
L<Net::SFTP::Foreign|Net::SFTP::Foreign>, L<Expect|Expect> or
L<rsync(1)|rsync(1)|>).
Net::OpenSSH and Net::SSH2 do not support version 1 of the SSH
protocol.
=head1 API
=head2 Optional arguments
Almost all methods in this package accept as first argument an
optional reference to a hash containing parameters (C<\%opts>). For
instance, these two method calls are equivalent:
my $out1 = $ssh->capture(@cmd);
my $out2 = $ssh->capture({}, @cmd);
=head2 Error handling
Most methods return undef (or an empty list) to indicate failure.
The L</error> method can always be used to explicitly check for
errors. For instance:
my ($output, $errput) = $ssh->capture2({timeout => 1}, "find /");
$ssh->error and die "ssh failed: " . $ssh->error;
=head2 Net::OpenSSH methods
These are the methods provided by the package:
=over 4
=item Net::OpenSSH->new($host, %opts)
Creates a new SSH master connection
C<$host> can be a hostname or an IP address. It may also
contain the name of the user, her password and the TCP port
number where the server is listening:
my $ssh1 = Net::OpenSSH->new('jack@foo.bar.com');
my $ssh2 = Net::OpenSSH->new('jack:secret@foo.bar.com:10022');
my $ssh3 = Net::OpenSSH->new('jsmith@2001:db8::1428:57ab'); # IPv6
IPv6 addresses may optionally be enclosed in brackets:
my $ssh4 = Net::OpenSSH->new('jsmith@[::1]:1022');
This method always succeeds in returning a new object. Error checking
has to be performed explicitly afterwards:
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host, %opts);
$ssh->error and die "Can't ssh to $host: " . $ssh->error;
If you have problems getting Net::OpenSSH to connect to the remote
host read the troubleshooting chapter near the end of this document.
Accepted options:
=over 4
=item user => $user_name
Login name
=item port => $port
TCP port number where the server is running
=item password => $password
User given password for authentication.
Note that using password authentication in automated scripts is a very
bad idea. When possible, you should use public key authentication
instead.
=item passphrase => $passphrase
X<passphrase>Uses given passphrase to open private key.
=item key_path => $private_key_path
Uses the key stored on the given file path for authentication.
=item gateway => $gateway
If the given argument is a gateway object as returned by
L<Net::OpenSSH::Gateway/find_gateway> method, use it to connect to
the remote host.
If it is a hash reference, call the C<find_gateway> method first.
For instance, the following code fragments are equivalent:
my $gateway = Net::OpenSSH::Gateway->find_gateway(
proxy => 'http://proxy.corporate.com');
$ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host, gateway => $gateway);
and
$ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host,
gateway => { proxy => 'http://proxy.corporate.com'});
=item proxy_command => $proxy_command
Use the given command to establish the connection to the remote host
(see C<ProxyCommand> on L<ssh_config(5)>).
=item batch_mode => 1
Disables querying the user for password and passphrases.
=item ctl_dir => $path
Directory where the SSH master control socket will be created.
This directory and its parents must be writable only by the current
effective user or root, otherwise the connection will be aborted to
avoid insecure operation.
By default C<~/.libnet-openssh-perl> is used.
=item ssh_cmd => $cmd
Name or full path to OpenSSH C<ssh> binary. For instance:
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host, ssh_cmd => '/opt/OpenSSH/bin/ssh');
=item scp_cmd => $cmd
Name or full path to OpenSSH C<scp> binary.
By default it is inferred from the C<ssh> one.
=item rsync_cmd => $cmd
Name or full path to C<rsync> binary. Defaults to C<rsync>.
=item remote_shell => $name
Name of the remote shell. Used to select the argument quoter backend.
=item timeout => $timeout
Maximum acceptable time that can elapse without network traffic or any
other event happening on methods that are not immediate (for instance,
when establishing the master SSH connection or inside methods
C<capture>, C<system>, C<scp_get>, etc.).
See also L</Timeouts>.
=item kill_ssh_on_timeout => 1
This option tells Net::OpenSSH to kill the local slave SSH process
when some operation times out.
See also L</Timeouts>.
=item strict_mode => 0
By default, the connection will be aborted if the path to the socket
used for multiplexing is found to be non-secure (for instance, when
any of the parent directories is writable by other users).
This option can be used to disable that feature. Use with care!!!
=item async => 1
By default, the constructor waits until the multiplexing socket is
available. That option can be used to defer the waiting until the
socket is actually used.
For instance, the following code connects to several remote machines
in parallel:
my (%ssh, %ls);
# multiple connections are established in parallel:
for my $host (@hosts) {
$ssh{$host} = Net::OpenSSH->new($host, async => 1);
}
# then to run some command in all the hosts (sequentially):
for my $host (@hosts) {
$ssh{$host}->system('ls /');
}
=item connect => 0
Do not launch the master SSH process yet.
=item master_opts => [...]
Additional options to pass to the C<ssh> command when establishing the
master connection. For instance:
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host,
master_opts => [-o => "ProxyCommand corkscrew httpproxy 8080 $host"]);
=item default_ssh_opts => [...]
Default slave SSH command line options for L</open_ex> and derived
methods.
For instance:
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host,
default_ssh_opts => [-o => "ConnectionAttempts=0"]);
=item forward_agent => 1
Enables forwarding of the authentication agent.
This option can not be used when passing a passphrase (via
L</passphrase>) to unlock the login private key.
Note that Net::OpenSSH will not run C<ssh-agent> for you. This has to
be done ahead of time and the environment variable C<SSH_AUTH_SOCK>
set pointing to the proper place.
=item forward_X11 => 1
Enables forwarding of the X11 protocol
=item default_stdin_fh => $fh
=item default_stdout_fh => $fh
=item default_stderr_fh => $fh
Default I/O streams for L</open_ex> and derived methods (currently, that
means any method but L</pipe_in> and L</pipe_out> and I plan to remove
those exceptions soon!).
For instance:
open my $stderr_fh, '>>', '/tmp/$host.err' or die ...;
open my $stdout_fh, '>>', '/tmp/$host.log' or die ...;
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host, default_stderr_fh => $stderr_fh,
default_stdout_fh => $stdout_fh);
$ssh->error and die "SSH connection failed: " . $ssh->error;
$ssh->scp_put("/foo/bar*", "/tmp")
or die "scp failed: " . $ssh->error;
=item default_stdin_file = $fn
=item default_stdout_file = $fn
=item default_stderr_file = $fn
Opens the given file names and use them as the defaults.
=item master_stdout_fh => $fh
=item master_stderr_fh => $fh
Redirect corresponding stdio streams of the master SSH process to
given filehandles.
=item master_stdout_discard => $bool
=item master_stderr_discard => $bool
Discard corresponding stdio streams.
=item expand_vars => $bool
Activates variable expansion inside command arguments and file paths.
See L</"Variable expansion"> below.
=item vars => \%vars
Initial set of variables.
=item external_master => 1
Instead of launching a new OpenSSH client in master mode, the module
tries to reuse an already existent one. C<ctl_path> must also be
passed when this option is set. See also L</get_ctl_path>.
Example:
$ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new('foo', external_master => 1, ctl_path = $path);
When C<external_master> is set, the hostname argument becomes optional
(C<0.0.0.0> is passed to OpenSSH which does not use it at all).
=item default_encoding => $encoding
=item default_stream_encoding => $encoding
=item default_argument_encoding => $encoding
Set default encodings. See L</Data encoding>.
=item password_prompt => $string
=item password_prompt => $re
By default, when using password authentication, the module expects the
remote side to send a password prompt matching C</[?:]/>.
This option can be used to override that default for the rare cases
when a different prompt is used.
Examples:
password_prompt => ']'; # no need to escape ']'
password_prompt => qr/[:?>]/;
=item login_handler => \&custom_login_handler
Some remote SSH server may require a custom login/authentication
interaction not natively supported by Net::OpenSSH. In that cases, you
can use this option to replace the default login logic.
The callback will be invoked repeatedly as C<custom_login_handler($ssh,
$pty, $data)> where C<$ssh> is the current Net::OpenSSH object, C<pty>
a L<IO::Pty> object attached to the slave C<ssh> process tty and
C<$data> a reference to an scalar you can use at will.
The login handler must return 1 after the login process has completed
successfully or 0 in case it still needs to do something else. If some
error happens, it must die.
Note, that blocking operations should not be performed inside the
login handler (at least if you want the C<async> and C<timeout>
features to work).
See also the sample script C<login_handler.pl> in the C<samples>
directory.
Usage of this option is incompatible with the C<password> and
C<passphrase> options, you will have to handle password or passphrases
from the custom handler yourself.
=item master_setpgrp => 1
When this option is set, the master process is run as a different
process group. As a consequence it will not die when the user presses
Ctrl-C at the terminal.
In order to allow the master SSH process to request any information
from the user, the module may set it as the terminal controlling
process while the connection is established (using
L<POSIX/tcsetpgrp>). Afterwards, the terminal controlling process is
reset.
This feature is highly experimental. Report any problems you may find,
please.
=back
=item $ssh->error
Returns the error condition for the last performed operation.
The returned value is a dualvar as $! (see L<perlvar/"$!">) that
renders an informative message when used in string context or an error
number in numeric context (error codes appear in
L<Net::OpenSSH::Constants|Net::OpenSSH::Constants>).
=item $ssh->get_user
=item $ssh->get_host
=item $ssh->get_port
Return the corresponding SSH login parameters.
=item $ssh->get_ctl_path
X<get_ctl_path>Returns the path to the socket where the OpenSSH master
process listens for new multiplexed connections.
=item ($in, $out, $err, $pid) = $ssh->open_ex(\%opts, @cmd)
X<open_ex>I<Note: this is a low level method which, probably, you do
not need to use!>
That method starts the command C<@cmd> on the remote machine creating
new pipes for the IO channels as specified on the C<%opts> hash.
If C<@cmd> is omitted, the remote user shell is run.
Returns four values, the first three (C<$in>, C<$out> and C<$err>)
correspond to the local side of the pipes created (they can be undef)
and the fourth (C<$pid>) to the PID of the new SSH slave process. An
empty list is returned on failure.
Note that C<waitpid> has to be used afterwards to reap the
slave SSH process.
Accepted options:
=over 4
=item stdin_pipe => 1
Creates a new pipe and connects the reading side to the stdin stream
of the remote process. The writing side is returned as the first
value (C<$in>).
=item stdin_pty => 1
Similar to C<stdin_pipe>, but instead of a regular pipe it uses a
pseudo-tty (pty).
Note that on some operating systems (e.g. HP-UX, AIX), ttys are not
reliable. They can overflow when large chunks are written or when data
is written faster than it is read.
=item stdin_fh => $fh
Duplicates C<$fh> and uses it as the stdin stream of the remote process.
=item stdin_file => $filename
=item stdin_file => \@open_args
Opens the file of the given name for reading and uses it as the remote
process stdin stream.
If an array reference is passed its contents are used as the arguments
for the underlying open call. For instance:
$ssh->system({stdin_file => ['-|', 'gzip -c -d file.gz']}, $rcmd);
=item stdin_discard => 1
Uses /dev/null as the remote process stdin stream.
=item stdout_pipe => 1
Creates a new pipe and connects the writing side to the stdout stream
of the remote process. The reading side is returned as the second
value (C<$out>).
=item stdout_pty => 1
Connects the stdout stream of the remote process to the
pseudo-pty. This option requires C<stdin_pty> to be also set.
=item stdout_fh => $fh
Duplicates C<$fh> and uses it as the stdout stream of the remote
process.
=item stdout_file => $filename
=item stdout_file => \@open_args
Opens the file of the given filename and redirect stdout there.
=item stdout_discard => 1
Uses /dev/null as the remote process stdout stream.
=item stdinout_socket => 1
Creates a new socketpair, attaches the stdin an stdout streams of the
slave SSH process to one end and returns the other as the first value
(C<$in>) and undef for the second (C<$out>).
Example:
my ($socket, undef, undef, $pid) = $ssh->open_ex({stdinout_socket => 1},
'/bin/netcat $dest');
See also L</open2socket>.
=item stdinout_dpipe => $cmd
=item stdinout_dpipe => \@cmd
Runs the given command locally attaching its stdio streams to those of
the remote SSH command. Conceptually it is equivalent to the
L<dpipe(1)> shell command.
=item stderr_pipe => 1
Creates a new pipe and connects the writing side to the stderr stream
of the remote process. The reading side is returned as the third
value (C<$err>).
Example:
my $pid = $ssh->open_ex({stdinout_dpipe => 'vncviewer -stdio'},
x11vnc => '-inetd');
=item stderr_fh => $fh
Duplicates C<$fh> and uses it as the stderr stream of the remote process.
=item stderr_file => $filename
Opens the file of the given name and redirects stderr there.
=item stderr_to_stdout => 1
Makes stderr point to stdout.
=item tty => $bool
Tells C<ssh> to allocate a pseudo-tty for the remote process. By
default, a tty is allocated if remote command stdin stream is attached
to a tty.
When this flag is set and stdin is not attached to a tty, the ssh
master and slave processes may generate spurious warnings about failed
tty operations. This is caused by a bug present in older versions of
OpenSSH.
=item close_slave_pty => 0
When a pseudo pty is used for the stdin stream, the slave side is
automatically closed on the parent process after forking the ssh
command.
This option disables that feature, so that the slave pty can be
accessed on the parent process as C<$pty-E<gt>slave>. It will have to
be explicitly closed (see L<IO::Pty|IO::Pty>)
=item quote_args => $bool
See L</"Shell quoting"> below.
=item remote_shell => $shell
Sets the remote shell. Allows one to change the argument quoting
mechanism in a per-command fashion.
This may be useful when interacting with a Windows machine where
argument parsing may be done at the command level in custom ways.
Example:
$ssh->system({remote_shell => 'MSWin'}, echo => $line);
$ssh->system({remote_shell => 'MSCmd,MSWin'}, type => $file);
=item forward_agent => $bool
Enables/disables forwarding of the authentication agent.
This option can only be used when agent forwarding has been previously
requested on the constructor.
=item forward_X11 => $bool
Enables/disables forwarding of the X11 protocol.
This option can only be used when X11 forwarding has been previously
requested on the constructor.
=item ssh_opts => \@opts
List of extra options for the C<ssh> command.
This feature should be used with care, as the given options are not
checked in any way by the module, and they could interfere with it.
=item tunnel => $bool
Instead of executing a command in the remote host, this option
instruct Net::OpenSSH to create a TCP tunnel. The arguments become the
target IP and port or the remote path for an Unix socket.
Example:
my ($in, $out, undef, $pid) = $ssh->open_ex({tunnel => 1}, $IP, $port);
my ($in, $out, undef, $pid) = $ssh->open_ex({tunnel => 1}, $socket_path);
See also L</Tunnels>.
=item encoding => $encoding
=item argument_encoding => $encoding
Set encodings. See L</Data encoding>.
=back
Usage example:
# similar to IPC::Open2 open2 function:
my ($in_pipe, $out_pipe, undef, $pid) =
$ssh->open_ex( { stdin_pipe => 1,
stdout_pipe => 1 },
@cmd )
or die "open_ex failed: " . $ssh->error;
# do some IO through $in/$out
# ...
waitpid($pid);
=item setpgrp => 1
Calls C<setpgrp> after forking the child process. As a result it will
not die when the user presses Ctrl+C at the console. See also
L<perlfunc/setpgrp>.
Using this option without also setting C<master_setpgrp> on the
constructor call is mostly useless as the signal will be delivered to
the master process and all the remote commands aborted.
This feature is experimental.
=item $ssh->system(\%opts, @cmd)
Runs the command C<@cmd> on the remote machine.
Returns true on success, undef otherwise.
The error status is set to C<OSSH_SLAVE_CMD_FAILED> when the remote
command exits with a non zero code (the code is available from C<$?>,
see L<perlvar/"$?">).
Example:
$ssh->system('ls -R /')
or die "ls failed: " . $ssh->error";
As for C<system> builtin, C<SIGINT> and C<SIGQUIT> signals are
blocked. (see L<perlfunc/system>). Also, setting C<$SIG{CHLD}> to
C<IGNORE> or to a custom signal handler will interfere with this
method.
Accepted options:
=over 4
=item stdin_data => $input
=item stdin_data => \@input
Sends the given data through the stdin stream to the remote
process.
For example, the following code creates a file on the remote side:
$ssh->system({stdin_data => \@data}, "cat >/tmp/foo")
or die "unable to write file: " . $ssh->error;
=item timeout => $timeout
The operation is aborted after C<$timeout> seconds elapsed without
network activity.
See also L</Timeouts>.
=item async => 1
Does not wait for the child process to exit. The PID of the new
process is returned.
Note that when this option is combined with C<stdin_data>, the given
data will be transferred to the remote side before returning control
to the caller.
See also the L</spawn> method documentation below.
=item stdin_fh => $fh
=item stdin_discard => $bool
=item stdout_fh => $fh
=item stdout_discard => $bool
=item stderr_fh => $fh
=item stderr_discard => $bool
=item stderr_to_stdout => $bool
=item stdinout_dpipe => $cmd
=item tty => $bool
See the L</open_ex> method documentation for an explanation of these
options.
=back
=item $ok = $ssh->test(\%opts, @cmd);
Runs the given command and returns its success/failure exit status as
1 or 0 respectively. Returns undef when something goes wrong in the
SSH layer.
Error status is not set to OSSH_SLAVE_CMD_FAILED when the remote
command exits with a non-zero code.
By default this method discards the remote command C<stdout> and
C<sterr> streams.
Usage example:
if ($ssh->test(ps => -C => $executable)) {
say "$executable is running on remote machine"
}
else {
die "something got wrong: ". $ssh->error if $ssh->error;
say "$executable is not running on remote machine"
}
This method support the same set of options as C<system>, except
C<async> and C<tunnel>.
=item $output = $ssh->capture(\%opts, @cmd);
=item @output = $ssh->capture(\%opts, @cmd);
This method is conceptually equivalent to the perl backquote operator
(e.g. C<`ls`>): it runs the command on the remote machine and captures
its output.
In scalar context returns the output as a scalar. In list context
returns the output broken into lines (it honors C<$/>, see
L<perlvar/"$/">).
The exit status of the remote command is returned in C<$?>.
When an error happens while capturing (for instance, the operation
times out), the partial captured output will be returned. Error
conditions have to be explicitly checked using the L</error>
method. For instance:
my $output = $ssh->capture({ timeout => 10 },
"echo hello; sleep 20; echo bye");
$ssh->error and
warn "operation didn't complete successfully: ". $ssh->error;
print $output;
Setting C<$SIG{CHLD}> to a custom signal handler or to C<IGNORE> will
interfere with this method.
Accepted options:
=over 4
=item stdin_data => $input
=item stdin_data => \@input
=item timeout => $timeout
See L</Timeouts>.
=item stdin_fh => $fh
=item stdin_discard => $bool
=item stderr_fh => $fh
=item stderr_discard => $bool
=item stderr_to_stdout => $bool
=item tty => $bool
See the L</open_ex> method documentation for an explanation of these
options.
=back
=item ($output, $errput) = $ssh->capture2(\%opts, @cmd)
captures the output sent to both stdout and stderr by C<@cmd> on the
remote machine.
Setting C<$SIG{CHLD}> to a custom signal handler or to C<IGNORE> will
also interfere with this method.
The accepted options are:
=over 4
=item stdin_data => $input
=item stdin_data => \@input
See the L</system> method documentation for an explanation of these
options.
=item timeout => $timeout
See L</Timeouts>.
=item stdin_fh => $fh
=item stdin_discard => $bool
=item tty => $bool
See the L</open_ex> method documentation for an explanation of these
options.
=back
=item ($in, $pid) = $ssh->pipe_in(\%opts, @cmd)
X<pipe_in>This method is similar to the following Perl C<open> call
$pid = open $in, '|-', @cmd
but running @cmd on the remote machine (see L<perlfunc/open>).
No options are currently accepted.
There is no need to perform a waitpid on the returned PID as it will
be done automatically by perl when C<$in> is closed.
Example:
my ($in, $pid) = $ssh->pipe_in('cat >/tmp/fpp')
or die "pipe_in failed: " . $ssh->error;
print $in $_ for @data;
close $in or die "close failed";
=item ($out, $pid) = $ssh->pipe_out(\%opts, @cmd)
X<pipe_out>Reciprocal to previous method, it is equivalent to
$pid = open $out, '-|', @cmd
running @cmd on the remote machine.
No options are currently accepted.
=item ($in, $out, $pid) = $ssh->open2(\%opts, @cmd)
=item ($pty, $pid) = $ssh->open2pty(\%opts, @cmd)
=item ($socket, $pid) = $ssh->open2socket(\%opts, @cmd)
=item ($in, $out, $err, $pid) = $ssh->open3(\%opts, @cmd)
=item ($pty, $err, $pid) = $ssh->open3pty(\%opts, @cmd)
Shortcuts around L</open_ex> method.
=item $pid = $ssh->spawn(\%opts, @_)
X<spawn>Another L</open_ex> shortcut, it launches a new remote process
in the background and returns the PID of the local slave SSH process.
At some later point in your script, C<waitpid> should be called on the
returned PID in order to reap the slave SSH process.
For instance, you can run some command on several hosts in parallel
with the following code:
my %conn = map { $_ => Net::OpenSSH->new($_, async => 1) } @hosts;
my @pid;
for my $host (@hosts) {
open my($fh), '>', "/tmp/out-$host.txt"
or die "unable to create file: $!";
push @pid, $conn{$host}->spawn({stdout_fh => $fh}, $cmd);
}
waitpid($_, 0) for @pid;
Note that C<spawn> should not be used to start detached remote
processes that may survive the local program (see also the L</FAQ>
about running remote processes detached).
=item ($socket, $pid) = $ssh->open_tunnel(\%opts, $dest_host, $port)
=item ($socket, $pid) = $ssh->open_tunnel(\%opts, $socket_path)
X<open_tunnel>Similar to L</open2socket>, but instead of running a
command, it opens a TCP tunnel to the given address. See also
L</Tunnels>.
=item $out = $ssh->capture_tunnel(\%opts, $dest_host, $port)
=item @out = $ssh->capture_tunnel(\%opts, $dest_host, $port)
X<capture_tunnel>Similar to L</capture>, but instead of running a command, it opens a
TCP tunnel.
Example:
$out = $ssh->capture_tunnel({stdin_data => join("\r\n",
"GET / HTTP/1.0",
"Host: www.perl.org",
"", "") },
'www.perl.org', 80)
See also L</Tunnels>.
=item $ssh->scp_get(\%opts, $remote1, $remote2,..., $local_dir_or_file)
=item $ssh->scp_put(\%opts, $local, $local2,..., $remote_dir_or_file)
These two methods are wrappers around the C<scp> command that allow
transfers of files to/from the remote host using the existing SSH
master connection.
When transferring several files, the target argument must point to an
existing directory. If only one file is to be transferred, the target
argument can be a directory or a file name or can be omitted. For
instance:
$ssh->scp_get({glob => 1}, '/var/tmp/foo*', '/var/tmp/bar*', '/tmp');
$ssh->scp_put('/etc/passwd');
Both L</scp_get> and L</scp_put> methods return a true value when all
the files are transferred correctly, otherwise they return undef.
Accepted options:
=over 4
=item quiet => 0
By default, C<scp> is called with the quiet flag C<-q> enabled in
order to suppress progress information. This option allows one to
re-enable the progress indication bar.
=item verbose => 1
Calls C<scp> with the C<-v> flag.
=item recursive => 1
Copies files and directories recursively.
=item glob => 1
Enables expansion of shell metacharacters in the sources list so that
wildcards can be used to select files.
=item glob_flags => $flags
Second argument passed to L<File::Glob::bsd_glob|File::Glob/bsd_glob>
function. Only available for L</scp_put> method.
=item copy_attrs => 1
Copies modification and access times and modes from the original
files.
=item bwlimit => $Kbits
Limits the used bandwidth, specified in Kbit/s.
=item timeout => $secs
The transfer is aborted if the connection does not finish before the
given timeout elapses. See also L</Timeouts>.
=item async => 1
Does not wait for the C<scp> command to finish. When this option is
used, the method returns the PID of the child C<scp> process.
For instance, it is possible to transfer files to several hosts in
parallel as follows:
use Errno;
my (%pid, %ssh);
for my $host (@hosts) {
$ssh{$host} = Net::OpenSSH->new($host, async => 1);
}
for my $host (@hosts) {
$pid{$host} = $ssh{$host}->scp_put({async => 1}, $local_fn, $remote_fn)
or warn "scp_put to $host failed: " . $ssh{$host}->error . "\n";
}
for my $host (@hosts) {
if (my $pid = $pid{$host}) {
if (waitpid($pid, 0) > 0) {
my $exit = ($? >> 8);
$exit and warn "transfer of file to $host failed ($exit)\n";
}
else {
redo if ($! == EINTR);
warn "waitpid($pid) failed: $!\n";
}
}
}
=item stdout_fh => $fh
=item stderr_fh => $fh
=item stderr_to_stdout => 1
These options are passed unchanged to method L</open_ex>, allowing
capture of the output of the C<scp> program.
Note that C<scp> will not generate progress reports unless its stdout
stream is attached to a tty.
=item ssh_opts => \@opts
List of extra options for the C<ssh> command.
This feature should be used with care, as the given options are not
checked in any way by the module, and they could interfere with it.
=back
=item $ssh->rsync_get(\%opts, $remote1, $remote2,..., $local_dir_or_file)
=item $ssh->rsync_put(\%opts, $local1, $local2,..., $remote_dir_or_file)
These methods use C<rsync> over SSH to transfer files from/to the remote
machine.
They accept the same set of options as the C<scp> ones.
Any unrecognized option will be passed as an argument to the C<rsync>
command (see L<rsync(1)>). Underscores can be used instead of dashes
in C<rsync> option names.
For instance:
$ssh->rsync_get({exclude => '*~',
verbose => 1,
safe_links => 1},
'/remote/dir', '/local/dir');
=item $sftp = $ssh->sftp(%sftp_opts)
X<Net_SFTP_Foreign>Creates a new L<Net::SFTP::Foreign|Net::SFTP::Foreign> object
for SFTP interaction that runs through the ssh master connection.
=item @call = $ssh->make_remote_command(\%opts, @cmd)
=item $call = $ssh->make_remote_command(\%opts, @cmd)
This method returns the arguments required to execute a command on the
remote machine via SSH. For instance:
my @call = $ssh->make_remote_command(ls => "/var/log");
system @call;
In scalar context, returns the arguments quoted and joined into one
string:
my $remote = $ssh->make_remote_comand("cd /tmp/ && tar xf -");
system "tar cf - . | $remote";
The options accepted are as follows:
=over 4
=item tty => $bool
Enables/disables allocation of a tty on the remote side.
=item forward_agent => $bool
Enables/disables forwarding of authentication agent.
This option can only be used when agent forwarding has been previously
requested on the constructor.
=item tunnel => 1
Return a command to create a connection to some TCP server reachable
from the remote host. In that case the arguments are the destination
address and port. For instance:
$cmd = $ssh->make_remote_command({tunnel => 1}, $host, $port);
=back
=item $ssh->wait_for_master($async)
When the connection has been established by calling the constructor
with the C<async> option, this call allows one to advance the process.
If C<$async> is true, it will perform any work that can be done
immediately without waiting (for instance, entering the password or
checking for the existence of the multiplexing socket) and then
return. If a false value is given, it will finalize the connection
process and wait until the multiplexing socket is available.
It returns a true value after the connection has been successfully
established. False is returned if the connection process fails or if
it has not yet completed (then, the L</error> method can be used to
distinguish between both cases).
From version 0.64 upwards, undef is returned when the master is still
in an unstable state (login, killing, etc.) and 0 when it is in a
stable state (running, stopped or gone).
=item $ssh->check_master
This method runs several checks to ensure that the master connection
is still alive.
=item $ssh->shell_quote(@args)
Returns the list of arguments quoted so that they will be restored to
their original form when parsed by the remote shell.
In scalar context returns the list of arguments quoted and joined.
Usually this task is done automatically by the module. See L</"Shell
quoting"> below.
This method can also be used as a class method.
Example:
my $quoted_args = Net::OpenSSH->shell_quote(@args);
system('ssh', '--', $host, $quoted_args);
=item $ssh->shell_quote_glob(@args)
This method is like the previous C<shell_quote> but leaves wildcard
characters unquoted.
It can be used as a class method also.
=item $ssh->set_expand_vars($bool)
Enables/disables variable expansion feature (see L</"Variable
expansion">).
=item $ssh->get_expand_vars
Returns current state of variable expansion feature.
=item $ssh->set_var($name, $value)
=item $ssh->get_var($name, $value)
These methods allow one to change and to retrieve the value of the
given name.
=item $ssh->get_master_pid
Returns the PID of the master SSH process
=item $ssh->master_exited
This methods allows one to tell the module that the master process has
exited when we get its PID from some external wait or waitpid
call. For instance:
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new('foo', async => 1);
# create new processes
# ...
# rip them...
my $master_pid = $ssh->master_pid;
while ((my $pid = wait) > 0) {
if ($pid == $master_pid) {
$ssh->master_exited;
}
}
If your program rips the master process and this method is not called,
the OS could reassign the PID to a new unrelated process and the
module would try to kill it at object destruction time.
=item $pid = $ssh->sshfs_import(\%opts, $remote_fs, $local_mnt_point)
=item $pid = $ssh->sshfs_export(\%opts, $local_fs, $remote_mnt_point)
These methods use L<sshfs(1)> to import or export a file system
through the SSH connection.
They return the C<$pid> of the C<sshfs> process or of the slave C<ssh>
process used to proxy it. Killing that process unmounts the file
system, though, it may be probably better to use L<fusermount(1)>.
The options accepted are as follows:
=over
=item ssh_opts => \@ssh_opts
Options passed to the slave C<ssh> process.
=item sshfs_opts => \@sshfs_opts
Options passed to the C<sshfs> command. For instance, to mount the file
system in read-only mode:
my $pid = $ssh->sshfs_export({sshfs_opts => [-o => 'ro']},
"/", "/mnt/foo");
=back
Note that this command requires a recent version of C<sshfs> to work (at
the time of writing, it requires the yet unreleased version available
from the FUSE git repository!).
See also the L<sshfs(1)> man page and the C<sshfs> and FUSE web sites
at L<http://fuse.sourceforge.net/sshfs.html> and
L<http://fuse.sourceforge.net/> respectively.
=item $or = $ssh->object_remote(@args)
X<Object_Remote>Returns an L<Object::Remote::Connection> instance
running on top of the Net::OpenSSH connection.
Example:
my $or = $ssh->object_remote;
my $hostname = Sys::Hostname->can::on($or, 'hostname');
say $hostname->();
See also L<Object::Remote>.
=item $any = $ssh->any(%opts)
X<Net_SSH_Any>Wraps the current object inside a Net::SSH::Any one.
Example:
my $any = $ssh->any;
my $content = $any->scp_get_content("my-file.txt");
=item $pid = $ssh->disown_master
Under normal operation Net::OpenSSH controls the life-time of the
master C<ssh> process and when the object is destroyed the master
process and any connection running over it are terminated.
In some (rare) cases, it is desirable to let the master process and
all the running connections survive. Calling this method does just
that, it tells Net::OpenSSH object that the master process is not its
own anymore.
The return value is the PID of the master process.
Note also that disowning the master process does not affect the
operation of the module in any other regard.
For instance:
# See sample/sshfs_mount.pl for a working program
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host);
my $sshfs_pid = $ssh->sshfs_import("/home/foo", "my-remote-home");
$ssh->disown_master;
$ssh->stop; # tells the master to stop accepting requests
exit(0);
=back
=head2 Shell quoting
By default, when invoking remote commands, this module tries to mimic
perl C<system> builtin in regard to argument processing. Quoting
L<perlfunc/system>:
Argument processing varies depending on the number of arguments. If
there is more than one argument in LIST, or if LIST is an array with
more than one value, starts the program given by the first element
of the list with arguments given by the rest of the list. If there
is only one scalar argument, the argument is checked for shell
metacharacters, and if there are any, the entire argument is passed
to the system's command shell for parsing (this is "/bin/sh -c" on
Unix platforms, but varies on other platforms).
Take for example Net::OpenSSH L</system> method:
$ssh->system("ls -l *");
$ssh->system('ls', '-l', '/');
The first call passes the argument unchanged to ssh and it is executed
in the remote side through the shell which interprets metacharacters.
The second call escapes any shell metacharacters so that, effectively,
it is equivalent to calling the command directly and not through the
shell.
Under the hood, as the Secure Shell protocol does not provide for this
mode of operation and always spawns a new shell where it runs the
given command, Net::OpenSSH quotes any shell metacharacters in the
command list.
All the methods that invoke a remote command (system, open_ex, etc.)
accept the option C<quote_args> that allows one to force/disable shell
quoting.
For instance:
$ssh->system({quote_args => 1}, "/path with spaces/bin/foo");
will correctly handle the spaces in the program path.
The shell quoting mechanism implements some extensions (for instance,
performing redirections to /dev/null on the remote side) that can be
disabled with the option C<quote_args_extended>:
$ssh->system({ stderr_discard => 1,
quote_args => 1, quote_args_extended => 0 },
@cmd);
The option C<quote_args> can also be used to disable quoting when more
than one argument is passed. For instance, to get some pattern
expanded by the remote shell:
$ssh->system({quote_args => 0}, 'ls', '-l', "/tmp/files_*.dat");
The method C<shell_quote> can be used to selectively quote some
arguments and leave others untouched:
$ssh->system({quote_args => 0},
$ssh->shell_quote('ls', '-l'),
"/tmp/files_*.dat");
When the glob option is set in C<scp> and C<rsync> file transfer
methods, an alternative quoting method which knows about file
wildcards and passes them unquoted is used. The set of wildcards
recognized currently is the one supported by L<bash(1)>.
Another way to selectively use quote globing or fully disable quoting
for some specific arguments is to pass them as scalar references or
double scalar references respectively. In practice, that means
prepending them with one or two backslashes. For instance:
# quote the last argument for globing:
$ssh->system('ls', '-l', \'/tmp/my files/filed_*dat');
# append a redirection to the remote command
$ssh->system('ls', '-lR', \\'>/tmp/ls-lR.txt');
# expand remote shell variables and glob in the same command:
$ssh->system('tar', 'czf', \\'$HOME/out.tgz', \'/var/log/server.*.log');
As shell quoting is a tricky matter, I expect bugs to appear in this
area. You can see how C<ssh> is called, and the quoting used setting
the following debug flag:
$Net::OpenSSH::debug |= 16;
By default, the module assumes the remote shell is some variant of a
POSIX or Bourne shell (C<bash>, C<dash>, C<ksh>, etc.). If this is not
the case, the construction option C<remote_shell> can be used to
select an alternative quoting mechanism.
For instance:
$ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host, remote_shell => 'csh');
$ssh->system(echo => "hard\n to\n quote\n argument!");
Currently there are quoters available for POSIX (Bourne) compatible
shells, C<csh> and the two Windows variants C<MSWin> (for servers
using L<Win32::CreateProcess>, see
L<Net::OpenSSH::ShellQuoter::MSWin>) and C<MSCmd> (for servers using
C<cmd.exe>, see L<Net::OpenSSH::ShellQuoter::MSCmd>).
In any case, you can always do the quoting yourself and pass the
quoted remote command as a single string:
# for VMS
$ssh->system('DIR/SIZE NFOO::USERS:[JSMITH.DOCS]*.TXT;0');
Note that the current quoting mechanism does not handle possible
aliases defined by the remote shell. In that case, to force execution
of the command instead of the alias, the full path to the command must
be used.
=head2 Timeouts
In order to stop remote processes when they timeout, the ideal approach
would be to send them signals through the SSH connection as specified
by the protocol standard.
Unfortunately OpenSSH does not implement that feature so Net::OpenSSH
has to use other imperfect approaches:
=over 4
=item * close slave I/O streams
Closing the STDIN and STDOUT streams of the unresponsive remote
process will effectively deliver a SIGPIPE when it tries to access any
of them.
Remote processes may not access STDIN or STDOUT and even then,
Net::OpenSSH can only close these channels when it is capturing them,
so this approach does not always work.
=item * killing the local SSH slave process
This action may leave the remote process running, creating a remote
orphan so Net::OpenSSH does not use it unless the construction option
C<kill_ssh_on_timeout> is set.
=back
Luckily, future versions of OpenSSH will support signaling remote
processes via the mux channel.
=head2 Variable expansion
The variable expansion feature allows one to define variables that are
expanded automatically inside command arguments and file paths.
This feature is disabled by default. It is intended to be used with
L<Net::OpenSSH::Parallel|Net::OpenSSH::Parallel> and other similar
modules.
Variables are delimited by a pair of percent signs (C<%>), for
instance C<%HOST%>. Also, two consecutive percent signs are replaced
by a single one.
The special variables C<HOST>, C<USER> and C<PORT> are maintained
internally by the module and take the obvious values.
Variable expansion is performed before shell quoting (see L</"Shell
quoting">).
Some usage example:
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new('server.foo.com', expand_vars => 1);
$ssh->set_var(ID => 42);
$ssh->system("ls >/tmp/ls.out-%HOST%-%ID%");
will redirect the output of the C<ls> command to
C</tmp/ls.out-server.foo.com-42> on the remote host.
=head2 Tunnels
Besides running commands on the remote host, Net::OpenSSH also allows
one to tunnel TCP connections to remote machines reachable from the
SSH server.
That feature is made available through the C<tunnel> option of the
L</open_ex> method, and also through wrapper methods L</open_tunnel>
and L</capture_tunnel> and most others where it makes sense.
Example:
$ssh->system({tunnel => 1,
stdin_data => "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n",
stdout_file => "/tmp/$server.res"},
$server, 80)
or die "unable to retrieve page: " . $ssh->error;
or capturing the output of several requests in parallel:
my @pids;
for (@servers) {
my $pid = $ssh->spawn({tunnel => 1,
stdin_file => "/tmp/request.req",
stdout_file => "/tmp/$_.res"},
$_, 80);
if ($pid) {
push @pids, $pid;
}
else {
warn "unable to spawn tunnel process to $_: " . $ssh->error;
}
}
waitpid ($_, 0) for (@pids);
Under the hood, in order to create a tunnel, a new C<ssh> process is
spawned with the option C<-W${address}:${port}> (available from
OpenSSH 5.4 and upwards) making it redirect its stdio streams to the
remote given address. Unlike when C<ssh> C<-L> options is used to
create tunnels, no TCP port is opened on the local machine at any time
so this is a perfectly secure operation.
The PID of the new process is returned by the named methods. It must
be reaped once the pipe or socket handlers for the local side of the
tunnel have been closed.
OpenSSH 5.4 or later is required for the tunnels functionality to
work. Also, note that tunnel forwarding may be administratively
forbidden at the server side (see L<sshd(8)> and L<sshd_config(5)> or
the documentation provided by your SSH server vendor).
When connecting to hosts running a recent version of OpenSSH sshd, it
is also possible to open connections targeting Unix sockets.
For instance:
my $response = $ssh->capture({tunnel => 1, stdin_data => $request },
"/tmp/socket-foo");
Currently, this feature requires a patched OpenSSH ssh client. The
patch is available as
C<patches/openssh-fwd-stdio-to-streamlocal-1.patch>.
=head2 Data encoding
Net::OpenSSH has some support for transparently converting the data send
or received from the remote server to Perl internal unicode
representation.
The methods supporting that feature are those that move data from/to
Perl data structures (e.g. C<capture>, C<capture2>, C<capture_tunnel>
and methods supporting the C<stdin_data> option). Data accessed through
pipes, sockets or redirections is not affected by the encoding options.
It is also possible to set the encoding of the command and arguments
passed to the remote server on the command line.
By default, if no encoding option is given on the constructor or on the
method calls, Net::OpenSSH will not perform any encoding transformation,
effectively processing the data as C<latin1>.
When data can not be converted between the Perl internal
representation and the selected encoding inside some Net::OpenSSH
method, it will fail with an C<OSSH_ENCODING_ERROR> error.
The supported encoding options are as follows:
=over 4
=item stream_encoding => $encoding
sets the encoding of the data send and received on capture methods.
=item argument_encoding => $encoding
sets the encoding of the command line arguments
=item encoding => $encoding
sets both C<argument_encoding> and C<stream_encoding>.
=back
The constructor also accepts C<default_encoding>,
C<default_stream_encoding> and C<default_argument_encoding> that set the
defaults.
=head2 Diverting C<new>
When a code ref is installed at C<$Net::OpenSSH::FACTORY>, calls to new
will be diverted through it.
That feature can be used to transparently implement connection
caching, for instance:
my $old_factory = $Net::OpenSSH::FACTORY;
my %cache;
sub factory {
my ($class, %opts) = @_;
my $signature = join("\0", $class, map { $_ => $opts{$_} }, sort keys %opts);
my $old = $cache{signature};
return $old if ($old and $old->error != OSSH_MASTER_FAILED);
local $Net::OpenSSH::FACTORY = $old_factory;
$cache{$signature} = $class->new(%opts);
}
$Net::OpenSSH::FACTORY = \&factory;
... and I am sure it can be abused in several other ways!
=head1 3rd PARTY MODULE INTEGRATION
=head2 Expect
Sometimes you would like to use L<Expect> to control some program
running in the remote host. You can do it as follows:
my ($pty, $pid) = $ssh->open2pty(@cmd)
or die "unable to run remote command @cmd";
my $expect = Expect->init($pty);
Then, you will be able to use the new Expect object in C<$expect> as
usual.
=head2 Net::Telnet
This example is adapted from L<Net::Telnet> documentation:
my ($pty, $pid) = $ssh->open2pty({stderr_to_stdout => 1})
or die "unable to start remote shell: " . $ssh->error;
my $telnet = Net::Telnet->new(-fhopen => $pty,
-prompt => '/.*\$ $/',
-telnetmode => 0,
-cmd_remove_mode => 1,
-output_record_separator => "\r");
$telnet->waitfor(-match => $telnet->prompt,
-errmode => "return")
or die "login failed: " . $telnet->lastline;
my @lines = $telnet->cmd("who");
...
$telnet->close;
waitpid($pid, 0);
=head2 mod_perl and mod_perl2
L<mod_perl> and L<mod_perl2> tie STDIN and STDOUT to objects that are
not backed up by real file descriptors at the operating system
level. Net::OpenSSH will fail if any of these handles is used
explicitly or implicitly when calling some remote command.
The work-around is to redirect them to C</dev/null> or to some file:
open my $def_in, '<', '/dev/null' or die "unable to open /dev/null";
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host,
default_stdin_fh => $def_in);
my $out = $ssh->capture($cmd1);
$ssh->system({stdout_discard => 1}, $cmd2);
$ssh->system({stdout_to_file => '/tmp/output'}, $cmd3);
Also, note that from a security stand point, running C<ssh> from
inside the web server process is not a great idea. An attacker
exploiting some Apache bug would be able to access the SSH keys and
passwords and gain unlimited access to the remote systems.
If you can, use a queue (as L<TheSchwartz|TheSchwartz>) or any other
mechanism to execute the ssh commands from another process running
under a different user account.
At a minimum, ensure that C<~www-data/.ssh> (or similar) is not
accessible through the web server!
=head2 Net::SFTP::Foreign
See L<method C<sftp>|/Net_SFTP_Foreign>.
=head2 Net::SSH::Any
See L<method C<any>|/Net_SSH_Any>.
=head2 Object::Remote
See L<method C<object_remote>|/Object_Remote>.
=head2 Other modules
CPAN contains several modules that rely on SSH to perform their duties
as for example L<IPC::PerlSSH|IPC::PerlSSH> or
L<GRID::Machine|GRID::Machine>.
Often, it is possible to instruct them to go through a Net::OpenSSH
multiplexed connection employing some available constructor
option. For instance:
use Net::OpenSSH;
use IPC::PerlIPC;
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new(...);
$ssh->error and die "unable to connect to remote host: " . $ssh->error;
my @cmd = $ssh->make_remote_command('/usr/bin/perl');
my $ipc = IPC::PerlSSH->new(Command => \@cmd);
my @r = $ipc->eval('...');
or...
use GRID::Machine;
...
my @cmd = $ssh->make_remote_command('/usr/bin/perl');
my $grid = GRID::Machine->new(command => \@cmd);
my $r = $grid->eval('print "hello world!\n"');
In other cases, some kind of plugin mechanism is provided by the 3rd
party modules to allow for different transports. The method C<open2>
may be used to create a pair of pipes for transport in these cases.
=head1 TROUBLESHOOTING
Usually, Net::OpenSSH works out of the box, but when it fails, some
users have a hard time finding the cause of the problem. This mini
troubleshooting guide should help you to find and solve it.
=over 4
=item 1 - check the error message
Add in your script, after the Net::OpenSSH constructor call, an error
check:
$ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new(...);
$ssh->error and die "SSH connection failed: " . $ssh->error;
The error message will tell what has gone wrong.
=item 2 - OpenSSH version
Ensure that you have a version of C<ssh> recent enough:
$ ssh -V
OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-5, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007
OpenSSH version 4.1 was the first to support the multiplexing feature
and is the minimal required by the module to work. I advise you to use
the latest OpenSSH (currently 5.8) or at least a more recent
version.
The C<ssh_cmd> constructor option lets you select the C<ssh> binary to
use. For instance:
$ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host,
ssh_cmd => "/opt/OpenSSH/5.8/bin/ssh")
Some hardware vendors (e.g. Sun, err... Oracle) include custom
versions of OpenSSH bundled with the operating system. In principle,
Net::OpenSSH should work with these SSH clients as long as they are
derived from some version of OpenSSH recent enough. Anyway, my advise
is to use the real OpenSSH software if you can!
=item 3 - run ssh from the command line
Check you can connect to the remote host using the same parameters you
are passing to Net::OpenSSH. In particular, ensure that you are
running C<ssh> as the same local user.
If you are running your script from a web server, the user
would probably be C<www>, C<apache> or something alike.
Common problems are:
=over 4
=item *
Remote host public key not present in known_hosts file.
The SSH protocol uses public keys to identify the remote hosts so that
they can not be supplanted by some malicious third parties.
For OpenSSH, usually the server public key is stored in
C</etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key.pub> or in
C</etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key.pub> and that key should be copied into the
C<~/.ssh/known_hosts> file in the local machine (other SSH
implementations may use other file locations).
Maintaining the server keys when several hosts and clients are
involved may be somewhat inconvenient, so most SSH clients, by
default, when a new connection is established to a host whose key is
not in the C<known_hosts> file, show the key and ask the user if he
wants the key copied there.
=item *
Wrong remote host public key in known_hosts file.
This is another common problem that happens when some server is
replaced or reinstalled from scratch and its public key changes
becoming different to that installed on the C<known_hosts> file.
The easiest way to solve that problem is to remove the old key from
the C<known_hosts> file by hand using any editor and then to connect
to the server replying C<yes> when asked to save the new key.
=item *
Wrong permissions for the C<~/.ssh> directory or its contents.
OpenSSH client performs several checks on the access permissions of
the C<~/.ssh> directory and its contents and refuses to use them when
misconfigured. See the FILES section from the L<ssh(1)> man page.
=item *
Incorrect settings for password or public key authentication.
Check that you are using the right password or that the user public
key is correctly installed on the server.
=back
=item 4 - security checks on the multiplexing socket
Net::OpenSSH performs some security checks on the directory where the
multiplexing socket is going to be placed to ensure that it can not be
accessed by other users.
The default location for the multiplexing socket is under
C<~/.libnet-openssh-perl>. It can be changed using the C<ctl_dir> and
C<ctl_path> constructor arguments.
The requirements for that directory and all its parents are:
=over 4
=item *
They have to be owned by the user executing the script or by root
=item *
Their permission masks must be 0755 or more restrictive, so nobody
else has permissions to perform write operations on them.
=back
The constructor option C<strict_mode> disables these security checks,
but you should not use it unless you understand its implications.
=item 5 - file system must support sockets
Some file systems (as for instance FAT or AFS) do not support placing
sockets inside them.
Ensure that the C<ctl_dir> path does not lay into one of those file
systems.
=back
=head1 DEBUGGING
Debugging of Net::OpenSSH internals is controlled through the variable
C<$Net::OpenSSH::debug>. Every bit of this variable activates
debugging of some subsystem as follows:
=over 4
=item bit 1 - errors
Dumps changes on the internal object attribute where errors are stored.
=item bit 2 - ctl_path
Dumps information about ctl_path calculation and the tests performed
on that directory in order to decide if it is secure to place the
multiplexing socket inside.
=item bit 4 - connecting
Dumps information about the establishment of new master connections.
=item bit 8 - commands and arguments
Dumps the command and arguments for every system/exec call.
=item bit 16 - command execution
Dumps information about the progress of command execution.
=item bit 32 - destruction
Dumps information about the destruction of Net::OpenSSH objects and
the termination of the SSH master processes.
=item bit 64 - IO loop
Dumps information about the progress of the IO loop on capture
operations.
=item bit 128 - IO hexdumps
Generates hexdumps of the information that travels through the SSH
streams inside capture operations.
=item bit 512 - OS tracing of the master process
Use the module L<Net::OpenSSH::OSTracer> to trace the SSH master
process at the OS level.
=back
For instance, in order to activate all the debugging flags, you can
use:
$Net::OpenSSH::debug = ~0;
Note that the meaning of the flags and the information generated is
only intended for debugging of the module and may change without
notice between releases.
If you are using password authentication, enabling debugging for
L<IO::Tty> may also show interesting information:
IO::Tty::DEBUG = 1;
Finally, by default debugging output is sent to C<STDERR>. You can
override it pointing C<$Net::OpenSSH::debug_fh> to a different file
handle. For instance:
BEGIN {
open my $out, '>', '/tmp/debug.txt' or warn $!;
$Net::OpenSSH::debug_fh = $out;
$Net::OpenSSH::debug = -1;
}
=head1 SECURITY
B<Q>: Is this module secure?
B<A>: Well, it tries to be!
From a security standpoint the aim of this module is to be as secure
as OpenSSH, your operating system, your shell and in general your
environment allow it to be.
It does not take any shortcut just to make your life easier if that
means lowering the security level (for instance, disabling
C<StrictHostKeyChecking> by default).
In code supporting features that are not just proxied to OpenSSH,
the module tries to keep the same standards of security as OpenSSH
(for instance, checking directory and file permissions when placing
the multiplexing socket).
On the other hand, and keeping with OpenSSH philosophy, the module
lets you disable most (all?) of those security measures. But just
because it lets you do it it doesn't mean it is a good idea to do
so!!!
If you are a novice programmer or SSH user, and googling you have just
found some flag that you don't understand but that seems to magically
solve your connection problems... well, believe me, it is probably a
bad idea to use it. Ask somebody how really knows first!
Just to make thinks clear, if your code contains any of the keywords
from the (non-exclusive) list below and you don't know why, you are
probably wrecking the security of the SSH protocol:
strict_mode
StrictHostKeyChecking
UserKnownHostsFile
Other considerations related to security you may like to know are as
follows:
=over 4
=item Taint mode
The module supports working in taint mode.
If you are in an exposed environment, you should probably enable it
for your script in order to catch any unchecked command for being
executed in the remote side.
=item Web environments
It is a bad idea to establish SSH connections from your webserver
because if it becomes compromised in any way, the attacker would be
able to use the credentials from your script to connect to the remote
host and do anything he wishes there.
=item Command quoting
The module can quote commands and arguments for you in a flexible
and powerful way.
This is a feature you should use as it reduces the possibility of some
attacker being able to inject and run arbitrary commands on the remote
machine (and even for scripts that are not exposed it is always
advisable to enable argument quoting).
Having said that, take into consideration that argument-quoting is
just a hack to emulate the invoke-without-a-shell feature of Perl
builtins such as C<system> and alike. There may be bugs(*) on the
quoting code, your particular shell may have different quoting rules
with unhandled corner cases or whatever. If your script is exposed to
the outside, you should check your inputs and restrict what you accept
as valid.
[* even if this is one of the parts of the module more intensively
tested!]
=item Shellshock
(see L<Shellshock|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shellshock_%28software_bug%29>)
When executing local commands, the module always avoids calling the
shell so in this way it is not affected by Shellshock.
Unfortunately, some commands (C<scp>, C<rsync> and C<ssh> when the
C<ProxyCommand> option is used) invoke other commands under the hood
using the user shell. That opens the door to local Shellshock
exploitation.
On the remote side invocation of the shell is unavoidable due to the
protocol design.
By default, SSH does not forward environment variables but some Linux
distributions explicitly change the default OpenSSH configuration to
enable forwarding and acceptance of some specific ones (for instance
C<LANG> and C<LC_*> on Debian and derivatives, Fedora does alike) and
this also opens the door to Shellshock exploitation.
Note that the shell used to invoke commands is not C</bin/sh> but the
user shell as configured in C</etc/passwd>, PAM or whatever
authentication subsystem is used by the local or remote operating
system. Debian users, don't think you are not affected because
your C</bin/sh> points to C<dash>!
=back
=head1 FAQ
Frequent questions about the module:
=over
=item Connecting to switches, routers, etc.
B<Q>: I can not get the method C<system>, C<capture>, etc., to work
when connecting to some router, switch, etc. What I am doing wrong?
B<A>: Roughly, the SSH protocol allows for two modes of operation:
command mode and interactive mode.
Command mode is designed to run single commands on the remote host. It
opens an SSH channel between both hosts, ask the remote computer to
run some given command and when it finish the channel is closed. It
is what you get, for instance, when you run something as...
$ ssh my.unix.box cat foo.txt
... and it is also the way Net::OpenSSH runs commands on the remote
host.
Interactive mode launches a shell on the remote hosts with its stdio
streams redirected to the local ones so that the user can
transparently interact with it.
Some devices (as probably the one you are using) do not run an
standard, general purpose shell (e.g. C<bash>, C<csh> or C<ksh>) but
some custom program specially targeted and limited to the task of
configuring the device.
Usually, the SSH server running on these devices does not support
command mode. It unconditionally attaches the restricted shell to any
incoming SSH connection and waits for the user to enter commands
through the redirected stdin stream.
The only way to work-around this limitation is to make your script
talk to the restricted shell (1-open a new SSH session, 2-wait for the
shell prompt, 3-send a command, 4-read the output until you get to the
shell prompt again, repeat from 3). The best tool for this task is
probably L<Expect>, used alone or combined with Net::OpenSSH (see
L</Expect>).
There are some devices that support command mode but that only accept
one command per connection. In that cases, using L<Expect> is also
probably the best option.
Nowadays, there is a new player, L<Net::CLI::Interaction> that may be
more suitable than Expect.
=item Connection fails
B<Q>: I am unable to make the module connect to the remote host...
B<A>: Have you read the troubleshooting section? (see
L</TROUBLESHOOTING>).
=item Disable StrictHostKeyChecking
B<Q>: Why is C<ssh> not run with C<StrictHostKeyChecking=no>?
B<A>: Using C<StrictHostKeyChecking=no> relaxes the default security
level of SSH and it will be relatively easy to end with a
misconfigured SSH (for instance, when C<known_hosts> is unwritable)
that could be forged to connect to a bad host in order to perform
man-in-the-middle attacks, etc.
I advice you to do not use that option unless you fully understand its
implications from a security point of view.
If you want to use it anyway, past it to the constructor:
$ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host,
master_opts => [-o => "StrictHostKeyChecking=no"],
...);
=item child process 14947 does not exist: No child processes
B<Q>: Calls to C<system>, C<capture> or C<capture2> fail with the
previous error, what I am doing wrong?
B<A>: That usually happens when C<$SIG{CHLD}> is set to C<IGNORE> or
to some custom handler reaping child processes by itself. In order to
solve the problem just disable the handler during the method call:
local $SIG{CHLD};
$ssh->system($cmd);
=item child process STDIN/STDOUT/STDERR is not a real system file
handle
B<Q>: Calls to C<system>, C<capture>, etc. fail with the previous
error, what's happening?
B<A>: The reported stdio stream is closed or is not attached to a real
file handle (e.g. it is a tied handle). Redirect it to C</dev/null> or
to a real file:
my $out = $ssh->capture({stdin_discard => 1, stderr_to_stdout => 1},
$cmd);
See also the L<mod_perl> entry above.
=item Solaris (and AIX and probably others)
B<Q>: I was trying Net::OpenSSH on Solaris and seem to be running into
an issue...
B<A>: The SSH client bundled with Solaris is an early fork of OpenSSH
that does not provide the multiplexing functionality required by
Net::OpenSSH. You will have to install the OpenSSH client.
Precompiled packages are available from Sun Freeware
(L<http://www.sunfreeware.com>). There, select your OS version an CPU
architecture, download the OpenSSH package and its dependencies and
install them. Note that you do B<not> need to configure Solaris to use
the OpenSSH server C<sshd>.
Ensure that OpenSSH client is in your path before the system C<ssh> or
alternatively, you can hardcode the full path into your scripts
as follows:
$ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($host,
ssh_cmd => '/usr/local/bin/ssh');
AIX and probably some other unixen, also bundle SSH clients lacking
the multiplexing functionality and require installation of the real
OpenSSH.
=item Can not change working directory
B<Q>: I want to run some command inside a given remote directory but I
am unable to change the working directory. For instance:
$ssh->system('cd /home/foo/bin');
$ssh->systen('ls');
does not list the contents of C</home/foo/bin>.
What am I doing wrong?
B<A>: Net::OpenSSH (and, for that matter, all the SSH modules
available from CPAN but L<Net::SSH::Expect>) run every command in a
new session so most shell builtins that are run for its side effects
become useless (e.g. C<cd>, C<export>, C<ulimit>, C<umask>, etc.,
usually, you can list them running C<help> from the shell).
A work around is to combine several commands in one, for instance:
$ssh->system('cd /home/foo/bin && ls');
Note the use of the shell C<&&> operator instead of C<;> in order to
abort the command as soon as any of the subcommands fail.
Also, several commands can be combined into one while still using the
multi-argument quoting feature as follows:
$ssh->system(@cmd1, \\'&&', @cmd2, \\'&&', @cmd3, ...);
=item Running detached remote processes
B<Q>: I need to be able to ssh into several machines from my script,
launch a process to run in the background there, and then return
immediately while the remote programs keep running...
B<A>: If the remote systems run some Unix/Linux variant, the right
approach is to use L<nohup(1)> that will disconnect the remote process
from the stdio streams and to ask the shell to run the command on the
background. For instance:
$ssh->system("nohup $long_running_command &");
Also, it may be possible to demonize the remote program. If it is
written in Perl you can use L<App::Daemon> for that (actually, there
are several CPAN modules that provided that kind of functionality).
In any case, note that you should not use L</spawn> for that.
=item MaxSessions server limit reached
B<Q>: I created an C<$ssh> object and then fork a lot children
processes which use this object. When the children number is bigger
than C<MaxSessions> as defined in sshd configuration (defaults to 10),
trying to fork new remote commands will prompt the user for the
password.
B<A>: When the slave SSH client gets a response from the remote
servers saying that the maximum number of sessions for the current
connection has been reached, it fall backs to open a new direct
connection without going through the multiplexing socket.
To stop that for happening, the following hack can be used:
$ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new(host,
default_ssh_opts => ['-oConnectionAttempts=0'],
...);
=item Running remote commands with sudo
B<Q>: How can I run remote commands using C<sudo> to become root first?
B<A>: The simplest way is to tell C<sudo> to read the password from
stdin with the C<-S> flag and to do not use cached credentials
with the C<-k> flag. You may also like to use the C<-p> flag to tell
C<sudo> to print an empty prompt. For instance:
my @out = $ssh->capture({stdin_data => "$sudo_passwd\n"},
'sudo', '-Sk',
'-p', '',
'--',
@cmd);
If the version of sudo installed on the remote host does not support
the C<-S> flag (it tells sudo to read the password from its STDIN
stream), you can do it as follows:
my @out = $ssh->capture({tty => 1,
stdin_data => "$sudo_passwd\n"},
'sudo', '-k',
'-p', '',
'--',
@cmd);
This may generate an spurious and harmless warning from the SSH master
connection (because we are requesting allocation of a tty on the
remote side and locally we are attaching it to a regular pair of
pipes).
If for whatever reason the methods described above fail, you can
always revert to using Expect to talk to the remote C<sudo>. See the
C<sample/expect.pl> script from this module distribution.

execution of Perl code in remote machines through SSH.
L<SSH::RPC|SSH::RPC> implements an RPC mechanism on top of SSH using
Net::OpenSSH to handle the connections.
L<Net::CLI::Interact> allows one to interact with remote shells
and other services. It is specially suited for interaction with
network equipment. The passphrase approach it uses is very clever. You
may also like to check the L<other
modules|https://metacpan.org/author/OLIVER> from its author, Oliver
Gorwits.
=head1 BUGS AND SUPPORT
=head2 Experimental features
L<Object::Remote> integration is highly experimental.
Support for tunnels targeting Unix sockets is highly experimental.
Support for the setpgrp feature is highly experimental.
Support for the gateway feature is highly experimental and mostly
stalled.
Support for taint mode is experimental.
=head2 Known issues
Net::OpenSSH does not work on Windows. OpenSSH multiplexing feature
requires passing file handles through sockets, something that is not
supported by any version of Windows.
It does not work on VMS either... well, probably, it does not work on
anything not resembling a modern Linux/Unix OS.
Old versions of OpenSSH C<ssh> may leave stdio streams in non-blocking
mode. That can result on failures when writing to C<STDOUT> or
C<STDERR> after using the module. In order to work-around this issue,
Perl L<perlfunc/fcntl> can be used to unset the non-blocking flag:
use Fcntl qw(F_GETFL F_SETFL O_NONBLOCK);
my $flags = fcntl(STDOUT, F_GETFL, 0);
fcntl(STDOUT, F_SETFL, $flags & ~O_NONBLOCK);
=head2 Reporting bugs and asking for help
To report bugs send an email to the address that appear below or use
the CPAN bug tracking system at L<http://rt.cpan.org>.
B<Post questions related to how to use the module in PerlMonks>
L<http://perlmonks.org/>, you will probably get faster responses than
if you address me directly and I visit PerlMonks quite often, so I
will see your question anyway.
=head2 Commercial support
Commercial support, professional services and custom software
development around this module are available through my current
company. Drop me an email with a rough description of your
requirements and we will get back to you ASAP.
=head2 My wishlist
If you like this module and you are feeling generous, take a look at
my Amazon Wish List: L<http://amzn.com/w/1WU1P6IR5QZ42>.
Also consider contributing to the OpenSSH project this module builds
upon: L<http://www.openssh.org/donations.html>.
=head1 TODO
- Tests for C<scp_*>, C<rsync_*> and C<sftp> methods
- Make L</pipe_in> and L</pipe_out> methods L</open_ex> based
- C<auto_discard_streams> feature for mod_perl2 and similar environments
- Refactor open_ex support for multiple commands, maybe just keeping
tunnel, ssh and raw
Send your feature requests, ideas or any feedback, please!
=head1 CONTRIBUTING CODE
The source code of this module is hosted at GitHub:
L<http://github.com/salva/p5-Net-OpenSSH>.
Code contributions to the module are welcome but you should obey the
following rules:
=over 4
=item Only Perl 5.8.4 required
Yes, that's pretty old, but Net::OpenSSH is intended to be also used
by system administrators that sometimes have to struggle with old
systems. The reason to pick 5.8.4 is that it has been the default perl
on Solaris for a long time.
=item Avoid the "All the world's a Linux PC" syndrome
The module should work on any (barely) sane Unix or Linux operating
system. Specially, it should not be assumed that the over-featured GNU
utilities and toolchain are available.
=item Dependencies are optional
In order to make the module very easy to install, no mandatory
dependencies on other CPAN modules are allowed.
Optional modules, that are loaded only on demand, are acceptable when
they are used for adding new functionality (as it is done, for
instance, with L<IO::Pty>).
Glue code for integration with 3rd party modules is also allowed (as
it is done with L<Expect>).
Usage of language extension modules and alike is not acceptable.
=item Tests should be lax
We don't want false negatives when testing. In case of doubt tests
should succeed.
Also, in case of tests invoking some external program, it should be
checked that the external program is available and that it works as
expected or otherwise skip those tests.
=item Backward compatibility
Nowadays Net::OpenSSH is quite stable and there are lots of scripts
out there using it that we don't want to break, so, keeping the API
backward compatible is a top priority.
Probably only security issues could now justify a backward
incompatible change.
=item Follow my coding style
Look at the rest of the code.
I let Emacs do the formatting for me using cperl-mode PerlStyle.
=item Talk to me
Before making a large change or implementing a new feature get in
touch with me.
I may have my own ideas about how things should be done. It is better
if you know them before hand, otherwise, you risk getting your patch
rejected.
=back
Well, actually you should know that I am quite good at rejecting
patches but it is not my fault!
Most of the patches I get are broken in some way: they don't follow
the main module principles, sometimes the author didn't get the full
picture and solved the issue in a short-sighted way, etc.
In any case, you should not be discouraged to contribute. Even if your
patch is not applied directly, seeing how it solves your requirements
or, in the case of bugs, the underlying problem analysis may be very
useful and help me to do it... my way.
I always welcome documentation corrections and improvements.
