OK. Can you write a patch? > But there are few more suggestions, right now > test_dir is global and for windows test_dir should be set to > ~/$ssh_username/username. So can that also be set ? Yes. Add a configuration option to Host (in __init__, from_dict and to_dict), and take the global default if not used. Then you can let Windows hosts default to either a hard-coded path, or to a new global config option like "windows_test_dir". -- Petr Viktorin -- Manage your subscription for the Freeipa-devel mailing list: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/freeipa-devel Contribute to FreeIPA: http://www.freeipa.org/page/Contribute/Code
