copy file over LAN

[Astan Chee]

Well, the solution seems to be something like (windows only)
import os
import os.path
import shutil
import sys
import win32wnet

def wnet_connect(host, username, password):
    unc = ''.join(['\\\\', host])
    try:
        win32wnet.WNetAddConnection2(0, None, unc, None, username, password)
    except Exception, err:
        if isinstance(err, win32wnet.error):
            # Disconnect previous connections if detected, and reconnect.
            if err[0] == 1219:
                win32wnet.WNetCancelConnection2(unc, 0, 0)
                return wnet_connect(host, username, password)
        raise err

if __name__ == '__main__':

    node = hostname
    dst = r'C:\temp\destination__'
    dst += node + r'.txt'
    wnet_connect(node,username,password)
    shutil.copyfile(r'\\' + node + r'\c$\temp\\al_lsf_log',dst)
