Description Anna Dushistova CLA 2010-11-26 16:32:08 EST 
On my machine(openSuse 11.2), root's home is /root, and not /home/root.
Since scp file service heavily depend on *nix commands, I suggest we do something like "cd ;pwd" to figure out user's home dir.
Nikita, what do you think?

Nikita reviewed the Patch but can't give a pmc_approved. Only the Tools PMC can do that, now that we're under the Tools TLP.
