But the script hangs even when run locally. i.e. I am running the script on the server itself without the SSH part. Catching the exit code is a great idea, but if the command I run is not even releasing the script to go to the next step, I cannot get them. Thanks for the idea though. - V.

Something I noticed when I used Net::Ping was that Unix(linux) and Windows machines respond differently. As Justice41 said, it may be a difference between echo and ICMP. I worked around this by pinging the machine with echo first and then ICMP. And if both of them fail, I marked them as down...

rosenk - You are correct. Thanks for pointing the mistake.

The following functions may help you # This function opens the directory for reading opendir(DIR,"$YOUR_DIR") # This function should give you all the files in the directory @ListOfFile = readdir DIR; #This function closes the directory closedir(DATA); You can read the list of files...
