  • 0

I have dozens of perl script on linux server, and I want use some of the script on my desktop. I have active perl installed on my system.

My question is since windows does not have native ssh how I can use the script? My script is use to login to cisco devices via ssh.

Any suggestions or ideas? Thanks in advance.

    I, for one, love Cygwin whenever I would like to pretend that my Windows box is actually a Linux box. Which is most of the time. In particular, I would rather install Cygwin’s openssl package rather than try to build and/or configure libssh2 on Windows. There are a lot of things I would rather do than build and configure libssh2 on Windows.

    I also find that there is less work to do in porting a Perl script from Linux to run on Cygwin than to run on Windows (though what work there is to do is less well documented).
