I don't believe this is because of root permissions. Rather a configuration issue. Move your .profile and friends away. Move all of your files in .ssh/ away, except the key file. Check permissions in /tmp. Log out. Log in. Try it again, with "emacs -Q". If that works, you can start to bring back the moved files, one after the other. By this, you could find out what's the problem. > I have new hope. > > S Best regards, Michael. _______________________________________________ Tramp-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/tramp-devel
