ok, I have a server with a dozen systems attached to it. there are
commands that I need to run on each system one at a time. i can
connect to each system with the admin script, i can launch basic
commands i can even launch the script i need to but when that script
tries to launch the partimage application to backup the windows
partitions (this is all being done from linux) it doesn't, i don't get
any good errors it just dies closes the connection an moves onto the
next system.

Net::SSH.start( host, Username, Password) do |session|
session.open_channel do |channel|

end

channel.send_request "shell", nil, true
channel.send_data "#{command}\n"
channel.send_data "exit\n"
