As a matter of fact, copSSH installer has always had a configurable
installation directory. See
http://www.itefix.no/phpws/index.php?module=pagemaster

&PAGE_user_op=view_page&PAGE_id=12&MMN_position=149:149
for more information.
 
copSSH setup environment including installer source code and all files you
need to build your own installer are available as a paid solution. See

My own problem with copSSH is that (the last time I checked) it could only
install in one place; there was no facility to install it to another
location. This meant that the root directory on connecting to a given
machine was always the same -- C:\ if I recall correctly.
 
For business applications, it is important to our customers to be able to
install it on different drives, and in a lower directory -- e.g. to
F:\application\ssh-home. With such an install location, we can access the
machine securely without having access to the *whole* machine... not all of
which may be 'ours' to play with.
 
Has this changed in the last year-ish? (Been about that long since I last
looked at it.) Or did I perhaps misunderstand how to run the installer in
the first place?
 
(I think the other problem our customers had with copSSH was that it was not
truly 'open source', in that we could not look at the installation code to
see exactly what it was putting where. OpenSSH provides its installer's
source code, which we have examined and recompiled for our own usage.)
 
I would love to go to copSSH (or any other 'more current' SSH installation
for Windows), and am probably not alone... but for us, at least, these two
items stand in the way of us doing so.
