Subject: Using net:ssh

Hello,
what I want to do is the following:
- ssh into a remote machine (let's call it 'frontend')
- from the front-end, ssh into another machine (call it node-A)

So far, i was only able to perform the first step:

require 'rubygems'
require 'net/ssh'

def do_run_introducer(session)
  session.open_channel do |channel|
    channel.on_data do |ch, data|
      puts data
    end
   channel.exec "ls" #to verify that i'm actually logged in..
  end
end

Net::SSH.start( 'remote-machine-address', my-user-name' ) do |
session|
  do_run_introducer session
  #do_run_peers session
 session.loop
end

Any help is very appreciated
