(Utils::SshConnection) How to send a SSH remote command?

[telecaster]

Dear Developers,

Im quite stuck for a while, and any help to keep me going forward will be greatly appreciated!

Actually I'm using The SshConnection integrated in the Qt Creator library. For unexperienced guys like me, It's quite difficult to work with the library as the documentation is very little.

While creating a succesfull connection to the SSH Server, I'm not capable of sending a command, like e.g. "ls -la" to the server and getting the corresponding answer with the list of files/directories. how should it be implemented?

Thanks to all in advance!

Cheers,
Marc

Here is the code:
