Error when using dsub on windows

[aknandi]

Hi,

I cannot use dsub on windows (I have no problems when I use linux). It seems that dsub_util.py tries to import pwd, and this module is only available on unix. The error message is below.

Could this be changed to be compatible with windows?

Thanks, Anita

Thanks for reporting Anita.

There is a suggested fix for this here that looks straight forward. You could try updating your local copy of dsub_util.py (the get_os_user() function) in the same way.
