Michael,
I’m no longer able to access files on a remote Unix server using plink from
Windows. It was working last week … and has been for a couple of years.
The basic error was a timeout:
tramp-error: Timeout reached, see buffer ‘*tramp/plink
fbart...@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx*’ for details
I was unable to access the named buffer, but the backtrace follows.
My sysop tells me that nothing’s changed on the server, fwiw.
Thanks!
Fred
