I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

killing SSH
I think the Change

0.58 - kill ssh only on Windows machines. On Unix, just closing IO should do.

Needs to be backed out. On Solaris 9 I'm finding that the close hangs on about 90% of (otherwise error free) runs, including the kill as on windows fixes the hang. Colin

Re: killing SSH
Hi Colin,

I did the change because other Unix users reported that they were getting a "SSH Killed" message when the connection was closed. I don't want to sent SSH stderr to /dev/null as it could be useful for debuging so I have to think a better solution like setting a timeout or something.

Thank you for the report.

BTW, for bug reports I would prefer if you mail me directly or use the CPAN bug tracking system.

Re: killing SSH
Colin, I am unable to reproduce the error in Solaris, would you let me see the script you were using?
