OK, so here is where I am now.
The apache user does not have a home directory so I have:
- created a directory, /var/www/localhost/htdocs/switchdb/.ssh
- I added id_dsa and id_rsa from my own user .ssh directory
- created an identity file with the connection data again extracted from my .ssh directory.
- changed owner to apache with 700 perms on directory an all sub-files
- modified the code so it now looks like this
my %params = ( protocol => "2", debug => "true", use_pty => 0, interac
+tive => "false", identity_files => ("/var/www/localhost/htdocs/switch
+db/.ssh/identity") );
I am now getting further in my code but get the following:
Starting run_pna_switch.pl
processing request for pna_swid 17 and mode on
processing request for pna_swid 17 and mode on
entering Net:SSH:Perl->new command
entering SSH->login command
The authenticity of host '146.6.167.199' can't be established.
Key fingerprint is 99:80:ac:53:50:14:5f:9a:04:ce:5f:44:0f:5c:7d:39.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? [yes]
So, of course I tried to run the code as 'su - apache /usr/bin/perl code.pl' but it does not run and does not produce any output and does not ask me the question. I am stumped here as to why this code won't run for me as apache on the cli to get this interactive question answered.
Actually, nothing that I run as 'su - apache' works including 'su - apache ssh 1.2.3.4' to try to do this interactively from the cli.
