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
/plink:mysrv:/home/gary $
