On Windows I can change remote directories in eshell via absolute paths
but using relative paths return an error message "No such directory
found via CDPATH environment variable".
Run runemacs.exe -Q
M-x eshell
Welcome to the Emacs shell
c:/software/emacs/bin $ cd /plink:mysrv:/
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary/ $ cd etc
No such directory found via CDPATH environment variable
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary/ $ cd /plink:mysrv:/etc
/plink:mysrv:/etc $
If I M-x toggle-debug-on-error I get the following backtrace:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "No such directory found via

I get the same error message if I try the following from the *scratch*
buffer:
(cd "/plink:mysrv:/") ; --> "/plink:mysrv:/"
(cd "etc") ; --> (error "No such directory found via CDPATH
environment variable")
(getenv "CDPATH") ; --> nil
If I change the error message in the cd function (files.el) to look like
the following
(error "No such directory '%s' found via CDPATH environment variable
'%s'" dir cd-path)
then it returns
No such directory ’etc’ found via CDPATH environment variable ’(./)’"
expand-file-name returns a path beginning with "c:" if the second arg
is "./" .
default-directory ; --> "/plink:mysrv:/"
(expand-file-name "etc") ; --> "/plink:mysrv:/etc"
(expand-file-name "etc" default-directory) ; --> "/plink:mysrv:/etc"
(expand-file-name "etc" "./") ; --> "c:/plink:mysrv:/etc"

Wouldn't the corresponding relative path for this be ../../etc? (I'm
assuming cd /plink:mysrv:/home/gary/etc doesn't work)

The output from the ls command looks ok, I can see the etc directory but
pwd/cd seems to be confused. If I go directly to
"/plink:mysrv:/home/gary" I can list the files in my home directory but
cd is still not working.
c:/software/emacs/bin $ cd /plink:mysrv:/
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary/ $ pwd
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary/
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary/ $ ls
bin dev home lib64 media mnt opt root selinux sys usr
boot etc lib lost+found misc net proc sbin srv tmp var
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary/ $ cd etc
No such directory found via CDPATH environment variable
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary/ $ cd /plink:mysrv:/home/gary
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary $ pwd
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary $ ls
Desktop Documents Downloads Music Pictures Public Templates Videos
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary $ cd Documents
No such directory found via CDPATH environment variable
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary $ cd ..
No such directory found via CDPATH environment variable
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary $ pwd
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary $ cd ../../etc
No such directory found via CDPATH environment variable

I can confirm I see this on my work’s Windows 10 PC using Emacs 25.1.
