ssh tullen

D

Dr Eberhard Lisse

Hi,

I have a PostgreSQL database behind a firewall which I can access
from a fixed IP address but obviously not while on the road where I
must issue something like:

ssh -N -C (e-mail address removed) -L 5433/localhost/5432

(using publik/private key combination) and then run my script to
generate the report.

I can in a slightly different context using Net::SSH issue commands
to the remote host, but I have been unable to figure out how to open
a tunnel from within the perl script (preferably with a module, but
that's not really the issue), then do my usual thing, and then close
the tunnel again.

Is this a unique problem? Or can someone point me to a code
fragment that does something like this...
