Prerequisites

  • Write a descriptive title.
  • Make sure you are able to repro it on the latest version
  • Search the existing issues.

Steps to reproduce

Windows: creating pub/priv key file works on default folder (if you dont enter any path) and for example on D drive (just a local volume) will work but will not work on a mapped network share.

Write rights are there so this should not be problem otherwise it couldnt write into my userprofile folder as well

Expected behavior

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "Test"
Generating public/private ed25519 key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (C:\Users\username/.ssh/id_ed25519):
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in C:\Users\username/.ssh/id_ed25519
Your public key has been saved in C:\Users\username/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub

Actual behavior

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "Test"
Generating public/private ed25519 key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (C:\Users\username/.ssh/id_ed25519): Q:\documents\key
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in q:\documents\key
Unable to save public key to Q:\\documents\\key.pub: Bad file descriptor

Error details

Q is my mapped home drive on a network share
Documents is a folder inside it and its accessible 

an extract of "set" shows following variables:

HOMEDRIVE=Q:
HOMEPATH=\
HOMESHARE=\\server.domain.de\share\somefoldername\username
