I thought they started blocking that work around.

Also +1 for describing things like the quotes and preferred username.

We had a guy doing remote file copy on a Unix system. Hr was given a sample like:

Scp john@server2:/data/incoming/filename.prt /home/john/files

He tried 5 times then complained to IT that the system couldn't find the file to transfer.

IT realized he wasn't replacing filename with his filename he just assumed the server new which file he wanted by typing filename. Lol.

Had a user given instructions to delete log data in C:/users/myusername/logs

User replies to IT: my system does not have a folder called "myusername"
