> WOW! The line you sent does work for me. This is really cool stuff. Well, this syntax is intended for accessing a remote host via multi-hops in ad-hoc mode, without configuration in advance. It is ugly, and hard to type. If you have a permanent need to use multi-hops, you might consider configuring `tramp-default-proxies-alist'. Let's say, you want to access several remote hosts by this scenario. Then you need a regexp, which matches exactly all these hosts. If there is exactly one host, "remotehost", the regexp could be created by (concat "^" (regexp-quote "remotehost") "$") Otherwise, you might check for the domain name or something else the hosts have in common. Then you need to add the following lines to your .emacs: (let ((regexp ...)) (add-to-list 'tramp-default-proxies-alist (regexp nil "/sudo:root@%h:")) (add-to-list 'tramp-default-proxies-alist (regexp "root" "/ssh:you@%h:"))) With "you" I mean your user account. With these settings, you can always access that remotehost via "C-x C-f /su:user@remotehost:/path" Best regards, Michael. _______________________________________________ Tramp-devel mailing list Tramp-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/tramp-devel
