I had the following call to scp:
'scp $oldHost:/etc/asterisk/sip.d/* $tmpRoot/'.run;
The call failed as the '*' was being expanded locally and we ended up with a fully qualified path of the form:
`scp /home/me/www.microsoft.com.au:/etc/asterisk/sip.d/* /remote/path'.run.
I got around this problem by quote the local path:
'scp $oldHost:"/etc/asterisk/sip.d/*" $tmpRoot/'.run;
However this dones't feel right.
Maybe we need to reconigize the presense of the ':' or perhaps any other non-path character and then do the expansion.
Of course in this case any expansion of the '*' is wrong (as its meant to be a path on the remote system).
We need to have a look at how bash is handling this situation and provide an equivalent implementation.
