Hello there,
Last week I upgraded my PC's Emacs distribution from 21.3 to 22.1, it
"almost" works as well as 21.3 did, one major problem, for me, I have not
succeeded to resolve.
>From my PC's Emacs I daily access files, through "ftp", on a remote Linux
server, running Emacs as well, this was working as a charm in 21.3, and on
previous versions of Emacs, but won't work on 22.1.1, here is what I do:
C-x d ;; then in the mini-buffer I enter my user name and path to the
Linux server.
/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/jeg002/splus/Splus
;; I ** instantly ** get a "login failed" message in the
mini buffer
;; and the *Messages* buffer displays the following.
tramp: Opening connection for [EMAIL PROTECTED] using ssh...
tramp: Waiting for prompts from remote shell
tramp: Waiting 60s for prompt from remote shell
tramp-process-actions: Login failed
;; the line saying that "tramp" waited 60s for prompt from the remote shell
is not
;; correct, the four lines show up as soon as I hit enter when prompted for
the
;; directory name by dired. I never even get prompted for my password?
In my ".emacs" file I have:
(setq ange-ftp-ftp-program-name ;; works with emacs 21 and ange-ftp
(if (w32-using-nt)
(progn
(if (file-exists-p "c:/Emacs/i386/ftp.exe") ;; nt and
w2000
"c:/windows/system32/ftp.exe" ;; xp
))
"c:/windows/ftp.exe")) ;; 95/98/ME
If I run the programe: "c:/Emacs/i386/ftp.exe" from a DOS shell it runs
fine.
Anyone has an idea on how to get "ftp" running from Emacs-22.1.1 on Windows
2000.
Thanks for any insight,
Gérald Jean
