How can you copy a file or folder over SSH to a specific folder (absolute path) in a remote Windows server ? Is it possible to use the remote server's environment variables to specify that path?
If I use fabric's put operation:
put('somedir')
or
put('somedir', '.')
Without a destination, it will create the folder in the user's Desktop folder in the destination and copy its contents (I have no idea why that is the default folder, and I couldn't change it through the freesshd daemon used on the windows server)
If I try using:
put('somedir', '/Users/me')
put('somedir', 'c:/Users/me')
put('somedir', './testdir')
Or:
put('somedir', 'c:\\Users\\me')
It will fail with permission denied (an error in paramiko's sftp_client.mkdir).
