Actually my requirement, to be specific, is as follows. The script will be executed in periodic fashion from a *nix server and the script will initiate a ssh connection to itself using perl. This is to confirm that the ssh service is running and there is no issue in getting a new and authenticated ssh session when clients will connect to the server via ssh externally. Please suggest.
