Remote.pm (File::Remote) problem Dayton Jones 02-28-2006

I've got a very simple script (see below) that uses the File::Remote
module. I've set up the script to use ssh/scp and there is no problem
for the user to ssh to the hosts - but the script fails with a
"permission denied" error on the copy command.

-- begin script

#!/usr/bin/perl
use File::Remote qw(:replace);

setrsh('/usr/bin/ssh');
serrcp('/usr/bin/scp');
settmp('/tmp');

copy("host1:/tmp/file","host1:/tmp/file2") or die ":: $!\n";

-- end script

On "host1" I can see the connection coming in:
        Feb 28 18:46:48 host1 sshd(pam_unix)[20211]: session opened for user
XXXX by (uid=XXX)
        Feb 28 18:46:49 host1 sshd(pam_unix)[20211]: session closed for user XXXX


So I don't know what is causing the permissions issue... Any ideas or
suggestions? What do I need to look at, what could be the cause?

Thanks is advance for any help...

You can learn how to help others help you, and also how to help yourself
by following the posting guidelines.

Sorry, no I hadn't read the guidelines but I will now.

I added the strict/warnings but had the same result -- with no extra
information.

Well, did you fix the typo above?

I don't have File-Remote installed, by I doubt serrcp is correct.

Yes, I noticed that when reading your original response -- changed it to
"setrcp="
