Comment(by macmedix):

 interesting! As a followup, I used Cyberduck to "send command..." and
 entered "'''pwd'''"  to learn that the path is not as expected!
 I'm using DreamHost.com,  a major hosting company.
 When I login (ssh or FTP) I connect as my username, then cd into the
 correct dir for that webs erver. What I see as the root (/) is not what
 pwd sees as the root.

 Where I think I am:[[BR]]
 /domainname.com/[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 Where FTP connections say I am:[[BR]]
 /domainname.com/[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 where Cyberduck says I am:[[BR]]
 '''pwd'''[[BR]]
 /home/.margara/macmedix[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 Where SSH says I am:[[BR]]
 '''[refresco]$ pwd'''[[BR]]
 /home/macmedix/domainname.com[[BR]]

 Interesting that the same question has 3 different answers.  To try & run
 the script from Cyberduck, I used the "Send Command..." to say:[[BR]]
 '''pwd'''[[BR]]
 /home/.margara/macmedix[[BR]]
 '''cd domainname.com'''[[BR]]
 '''pwd'''[[BR]]
 /home/.margara/macmedix[[BR]]
 '''cd ..'''[[BR]]
 '''pwd'''[[BR]]
 /home/.margara/macmedix[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 So it appears that Cyberduck is not able to cd .. nor cd into a directory
 from the "Send Command..." Perhaps this is a result of how this webhost
 does things, but I can easily use Terminal or iTerm and SSH into the same
 host to move around and run scripts. I also tried the same test on my own
 OSX server, and it seems to me that CyberDuck was not able to "Send
 Command..." to cd up or into any folder. I connected using CyberDuck via
 SSH as root and was stuck in the root's home folder.

 If it helps, I'm happy to give you a shell account on the web host so you
 can see it yourself.

 Thanks very much for your time and consideration! I really appreciate it!
 :-)

 Dave
