What's your problem with Net SSH?

1. Install OpenSSH server

2. Create an user account for SSH

3. In OpenSSH bin folder
mkpasswd -l user >> ../etc/passwd

4. Run following code.

require 'net/ssh'
host = '127.0.0.1'
user = 'test'
password = 'test'
command = 'cmd.exe /c dir'
 Net::SSH.start( host, user, :password=> password) do |ssh|
    puts "Opened Connection to #{host}"
    puts ssh.exec!( "#{command}")
    puts "Closed Connection to #{host}"
  end
