Thanks. It is Net::SSH::Perl module.
I saw that one, but didn't try it. The docs for Net::SSH point to Net::SSH::Perl as an "all-Perl implementation that does not require the system ssh command". Since Mac OS X comes with an ssh command out of the box, I didn't figure the "all-Perl" version would be needed.
But the install process is long. I had to install many many modules, and some libraries I think.
Net::SSH has no dependencies; the complete install took less than a minute, including the download.
Net::SSH::Perl is considerably more complex than Net::SSH. Because it doesn't rely on the system ssh command, it has to implement the SSH transport layer, and all of the low-level encryption schemes, from scratch - not a simple job.
