My problem is:

sub init() {

$Test->description("Establishing the connection to the client");

eval {
$Host = host($CLIENT) or die($@);
$Conn = connect("#ssh") or die "Client connection Failed" . $@;

};
if ($@) {
$Log->error("Unable to instantiate the Objects for the Test" .

$@);
return $TCD::CONFIG;
}

return $TCD::PASS;
}## end sub init ()

Here I’m trying to connect windows machine using connect object which

is working fine. But when I tried to execute the command on Windows

machine from Linux machine by using:

my (undef, undef,$output,undef) = say ($Conn, "cmd /c $CMD_PATH\\smvi

backup create -id $ID_NUM -backup-name $backup_name -server $SERVER",

-timeout,$TIMEOUT);


it is asking the username and password even if I don’t execute the

command which has option ‘-user-‘. Can just let me know why its failing

when I use ssh.

Please use CODE tags. And it's failing, because Windows doesn't work the same way as Linux does. Without seeing all the code, and knowing what version/distro of Linux, and how SSH is working on Windows, it's hard to say.
