Plink error

[akyuceisik]

My script is simple:

 
 #!/usr/bin/perl
 
 `plink alcatel@50.1.1.10 -pw alcatel ls /usr`;
 

The error message is:
Unable to open connection:
Name or service not known

First off please use code tags,

Second thats not related to perl, unless it works in Shell for *nix.

also why is ls should'nt you be piping /usr in there??

eg.

 Plinx XXXXXXXXXXX xxxxx@xxx || ls /usr

But when iexecute this command in prompt line, it works.

In perl script , if i put this command between `'s, it must execute this command.

[Icecrack]

ok,


try

system(`plink alcatel@50.1.1.10 -pw alcatel ls /usr`);

[akyuceisik]

It's OK now, but not with `'s with 's :-)

One more question,

system('mail [e-mail] -s "trial" "trial"');

when i write this the script hangs on.

[Icecrack]

almost for got to get more detail, it may hang but thats because we didnt end it if it had errors.



try

system('mail [e-mail] -s "trial" "trial"') || die "Error: $!";

and please put all your code in code tags
