Bug #84727 for Net-SSH-Perl: Password problem

Hi there, I just came across a potential bug in the $ssh->login($username, $password) method. ... my $username = q{someguy}; my $password = q{something#123}; $ssh->login($username, $password) ; This came back with permission denied error. Apparently it was ignoring everything from '#' onwards in the login call as though it was a comment. Not sure if this is a bug or not or something in my environment. If I used $ssh->login( $username, q{something#123} ) it worked fine. Thoughts? -- ======================================== eSolutions Building 203, Clayton Campus, Monash University Clayton Vic 3800 Australia Ph: +61 3 990 56155 ========================================

Sorry, I think I found the problem. I was using Config::General and forgot to turn off the comments option. My mistake... On 19/04/2013 10:34 AM, Bugs in Net-SSH-Perl via RT wrote: Show quoted text
