According to the docs for SSH (and also SFTP), the third parameter
should be a Hash...
session = Net::SSH.start("machine1", "administrator", :password => "baubau")
...or for SFTP...
session = Net::SFTP.start("machine1", "administrator", :password => "baubau")
Try it outside of ruby first (in unix shell)...
> sftp administrator@machine1
