I don't understand the Net::Telnet error

When I run the following on Linux Fedora Core 6

#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use diagnostics;

{
my ($pty, $ssh, @lines);
my $host = "arbornet.org";
my $user = "cd";
my $password = "testme";
my $prompt = "/changeme:~> $/";
## Start ssh program.
$pty = &spawn("ssh", "-l", $user, $host); # spawn() defined below

use Net::Telnet;
$ssh = new Net::Telnet (-fhopen => $pty,

-telnetmode => 0,
-cmd_remove_mode => 1);

## Login to remote host.
#$ssh->open($host);
#$ssh->login($user, $pass);
$ssh->waitfor(-match => '/password: ?$/i', -errmode => "return")

$ssh->print($password);
$ssh->waitfor(-match => $ssh->prompt, -errmode => "return")
or die "login failed: ", $ssh->lastline;

## Send command, get and print its output.
@lines = $ssh->cmd("who");

exit;
} # end main program

sub spawn {

my($pid, $pty, $tty, $tty_fd);

## Create a new pseudo terminal.
use IO::pty ();
$pty = new IO::pty or die $!;

## Execute the program in another process.
unless ($pid = fork) { # child process

open STDOUT, ">&$tty_fd" or die $!;

close $tty;

## Execute requested program.
exec @cmd
or die "problem executing $cmd[0]\n";
} # end child process
$pty;
} # end sub spawn


I get the following error message......
[cdalten@localhost ~]$ ./bot2.pl
Uncaught exception from user code:
problem connecting to host: Welcome to FreeBSD!
at ./bot2.pl line 24
[cdalten@localhost ~]$


The "Welcome to FreeBSD!" is part of the message on the remote server.
However, netstat shows that I'm conneced.

tcp 0 0 66.81.68.80:53169
69.39.89.95:22 ESTABLISHED


What is causing this error message and more to the point. How come the
"who" command doesn't get executed.

Looks like there was a generic error message:

...waitfor(-match => '/password: ?$/i',
-errmode => "return")
or die "problem connecting to host: "

You can add errmsg() for additional detail:

or die "problem connecting to host: ",
$ssh->errmsg;

If the message is a 'pattern match timeout' for
instance, you may want to set Dump_Log and/or
Input_Log to see what's being sent from the
server.

I added errmsg() and when I ran the code, got the following

[cdalten@localhost ~]$ ./bot2.pl
Uncaught exception from user code:
