segmentation fault while using Net::ssh::perl module with threads - multithreading

After running this program
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Code below:
use threads;
use Net::SSH::Perl;
my $host = 'hostname';
my $user = 'root';
my $password = 'root123';
my $thread = threads->new (\&ThreadEntry,"ls");
my $thread1 = threads->new (\&ThreadEntry,"ls -al ");
sub ThreadEntry()
{
my $ssh = Net::SSH::Perl->new($host, 35903);
print "in ssh function \n";
my($stdout, $stderr, $exit) =$ssh->cmd(#_);
print "$stdout $stderr $exit\n";
}
$thread->join();
$thread1->join();

Ssh using expect with threads?

Have you found solution any on how to ssh using expect with threads?
sub thDoWork {
#variables
my $thread_number = $_[0];
my $PassStoreQueue = $_[1];
my $Thread_Die = '';
my $My_Print_Bucket = '';
while ($Thread_Die ne 'KILL_THREAD') {
my $temp_Store_Number_Working_On = $PassStoreQueue->dequeue();
my $name;
my $ip;
my $Device_Exist;
my $TempDeviceName;
my $DNS_Results;
# I need to ssh inside many threads, I can ssh from the main
# thread just fine but not a sub thread.
$ssh = Expect->spawn("ssh -l $username1 $temp_ssh_device " .
"-o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null " .
"-o StrictHostKeyChecking=no")
or return "Couldn't spawn ssh session";
# this is unable to login to device.
}
I have read a thread that expect is not working correctly in threads, is that still true?

How to call a function in Perl script after performing SSH?

I am creating a perl script in which I have to ssh multiple servers from same script and perform same commands on all these remote servers.
Right now I am using "If loop" and call all other servers from this script and perform command on them.
I want to create a function with these set of commands, that I need to perform on these different servers.
if($random_number==1){
use Net::SSH::perl
use lib qw("user/share/perl5/");
my $hostname = "10.*.*.*";
my $username = "root";
my $password = "root\#123";
my $cmd1 = "ls /home/ashish/"
my $cmd2 = "netstat -na | grep *.*.*.*;
$ssh->login("$username" , "$password");
my ($stdout,$stderr,$exit) = $ssh->cmd("$smd1" && "$cmd2");
print $stdout;
}
the above commands after if syntax needs to be repeated for different servers.
want to use a function call.
Start with general programming toutorials, then do it like:
use Net::SSH::perl;
use strict;
use warnings;
my #servers = (
{
hostname => 'somehost1',
username => 'someuser1',
password => 'somepass1',
commands => ['somecmd11','somecmd12'],
},
{
hostname => 'somehost2',
username => 'someuser2',
password => 'somepass2',
commands => ['somecmd21','somecmd22'],
},
# ...
);
do_something_on_remote_servers_one_by_one( #servers );
exit(0);
sub do_something_on_remote_servers_one_by_one {
my (#servers) = #_;
foreach my $server (#servers) {
my $ssh = Net::SSH::perl->new($server->{hostname});
$ssh->login($server->{username}, $server->{password});
my $cmd_string = join(' & ', #{ $server->{commands} } );
my ($stdout,$stderr,$exit) = $ssh->cmd($cmd_string);
print $stdout;
}
}
After that, you can think about executing commands in paralell.

Using Net::Telnet to ssh into linux

I am trying to use below perl code to ssh into linux machine and pull output of ls -l but it doesnt seem to be working.
What am i doing wrong?
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Net::Telnet;
use IO::Pty;
use POSIX 'setsid';
use Getopt::Long;
use constant PROMPT => '/[a-z#>]/';
my $host = "192.168.1.121";
my $user = "root";
my $ssh = do_cmd( 'ssh', "-l$user", $host );
my $shell = Net::Telnet->new( Fhopen => $ssh );
$shell->binmode(1);
$shell->cmd( String => 'test', Prompt => '/[a-z]/' );
$shell->waitfor(PROMPT);
my #lines = $shell->cmd( String => 'ls -l', Prompt => '/[a-z]/' );
print #lines;
print "\n";
sub do_cmd {
my ( $cmd, #args ) = #_;
my $pty = IO::Pty->new;
defined( my $child = fork );
return $pty if $child;
setsid();
my $tty = $pty->slave;
close $pty;
STDIN->fdopen( $tty, "<" );
STDOUT->fdopen( $tty, ">" );
STDERR->fdopen( $tty, ">" );
close $tty;
$| = 1;
exec $cmd, #args;
}
Telnet and SSH are two different programs. You can't use telnet client for ssh server.

File transfered via SFTP

I have a Linux (openSUSE 10.X) box and have a SFTP service on it.
When someone puts a file I have to write a script to move the files to another dir. I do not want to write a cron job. Is there an event or something I can check to see if they have sent the file?
You can write a c application and hook into inotify events.
Check also Net::SFTP::Server, an SFTP server written in Perl that can be extended to do things like the one you need.
Some code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use File::Basename ();
my $server = Server->new(timeout => 15);
$server->run;
exit(0);
package Server;
use Net::SFTP::Server::Constants qw(SSH_FXF_WRITE);
use parent 'Net::SFTP::Server::FS';
sub handle_command_open_v3 {
my ($self, $id, $path, $flags, $attrs) = #_;
my $writable = $flags & SSH_FXF_WRITE;
my $pflags = $self->sftp_open_flags_to_sysopen($flags);
my $perms = $attrs->{mode};
my $old_umask;
if (defined $perms) {
$old_umask = umask $perms;
}
else {
$perms = 0666;
}
my $fh;
unless (sysopen $fh, $path, $pflags, $perms) {
$self->push_status_errno_response($id);
umask $old_umask if defined $old_umask;
return;
}
umask $old_umask if defined $old_umask;
if ($writable) {
Net::SFTP::Server::FS::_set_attrs($path, $attrs)
or $self->send_status_errno_response($id);
}
my $hid = $self->save_file_handler($fh, $flags, $perms, $path);
$self->push_handle_response($id, $hid);
}
sub handle_command_close_v3 {
my $self = shift;
my ($id, $hid) = #_;
my ($type, $fh, $flags, $perms, $path) = $self->get_handler($hid);
$self->SUPER::handle_command_close_v3(#_);
if ($type eq 'file' and $flags & SSH_FXF_WRITE) {
my $name = File::Basename::basename($path);
rename $path, "/tmp/$name";
}
}
Save the script to somewhere in your server, chmod 755 $it, and configure OpenSSH to use it as the SFTP server instead of the default one.

Perl script not executing some external calls

I have wrote this Perl script to automate my wireless connections:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my #modes = ("start", "stop");
my $mode = $modes[0];
my $kill_command = "sudo kill -TERM ";
sub check_args
{
if($#ARGV != 0)
{
print(STDERR "Wrong arguments\n");
print(STDERR "Usage: ./wicd.pl start|stop\n");
exit();
}
my #aux = grep(/^$ARGV[0]$/, #modes);
if (!#aux)
{
print(STDERR "Unknown argument\n");
print(STDERR "Usage: ./wicd.pl start|stop\n");
exit();
}
$mode = $ARGV[0];
}
check_args();
my #is_wicd_running = `ps -A | grep wicd`;
# START
if ($mode eq $modes[0])
{
if (!#is_wicd_running)
{
system("gksudo ifconfig wlan0 down");
system("sudo macchanger -r wlan0");
system("sudo wicd");
}
my #is_wicd_gui_running = grep(/wicd-client/, #is_wicd_running);
if (!#is_wicd_gui_running)
{
system("gksudo wicd-gtk &");
}
}
# STOP
else
{
for (#is_wicd_running)
{
my #aux = split(/ /, $_);
system("$kill_command$aux[1]");
}
system("sudo ifconfig wlan0 down");
}
The problem is that macchanger and sudo ifconfig wlan0 down are not executing (only those...). The weird thing is that those call do execute when calling the script through Perl debugger (perl -d). I thought this could be a timing problem and added some sleep() calls before those calls, but no change. I also tried with system() calls with no change as well.
EDIT: more strange, I've found that if I run the script as perl wicd.pl it runs properly, while ./wicd.pl does not (it runs but has the problem described above). I've attached the whole script. The Perl interpreter used on the header is the same that which perl command returns.
Any clues? Thanks in advance!
More information may help, along with assuring that a \n always ends the output line. Try your running commands within
sub runx
{
foreach my $cmd ( #_ )
{
my $out = qx("$cmd 2>&1");
my $x = $?;
$out =~ s/\s*$/\n/s;
printf "\%s (0x\%0x):\n\%s", $cmd, $x, $out;
last if $x;
}
return $x;
}
No time to run this code this morning and can't delete my prior comment. But somethings running a "which" command can also assure your command is on PATH.
