Close.

You do the login correctly in example 1, but then you use print to
issue the command. all that does is print the string "/usr/bin/ls\n"
to the remote terminal and return 1 to let you know the command
succeeded. If you want the output of the remote command, you need to
use cmd (in list context)

In example 2, you don't pass a password to login or waitfor one, so
you never login. You do, though, use cmd, which is what you want,
although you need list context:

$t->open("host1");
$t->waitfor('/login:.*$/');
$t->print("root");
my @forecast=$t->cmd("/usr/bin/ls");
my $scalar_forecast = join "", @forecast;
# or join'\n', I don't remember if cmd returns newlines or not

HTH,
