It appears that Tramp got confused. I guess that your value of shell-prompt-pattern matches the following string from the above transcript: FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE (HONEYPOT_KANGA) #1: Sun Jul 7 20:58:28 CDT 2002 If this is the problem, then it has been fixed recently, by the following changes. 2002-07-19 Steve Youngs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * tramp.el: Revert my previous patch. It's better to work around the colour prompt problem outside of Tramp, eg in ~/.bashrc or similar. 2002-07-19 Steve Youngs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * tramp.el (tramp-find-shell): Remove "\\'" from regexp so we can deal with shell prompts that have colour control characters in them. (tramp-open-connection-telnet): Ditto. (tramp-open-connection-rsh): Ditto. (tramp-open-connection-su): Ditto. (tramp-open-connection-multi): Ditto. (tramp-multi-connect-telnet): Ditto. (tramp-multi-connect-rlogin): Ditto. (tramp-multi-connect-su): Ditto. (tramp-open-connection-setup-interactive-shell): Ditto. 2002-05-22 Kai Großjohann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * tramp.el (tramp-find-shell, tramp-open-connection-telnet) (tramp-open-connection-rsh, tramp-open-connection-su) (tramp-open-connection-multi, tramp-multi-connect-telnet) (tramp-multi-connect-rlogin) (tramp-open-connection-setup-interactive-shell): Shell prompt must match at end of buffer. You can have a look in your lisp/ChangeLog file to see if you have these changes. If you have only the third change, then you're fine. If you have the second change, then you must also have the first change -- as you can see, Steve first broke it and then repaired it again. Sadly, I forgot which changes are in which released version, but I want to release a new version soon with bug fixes. In the meantime, you can get the current CVS from Savannah or mail me for a tarball. kai -- A large number of young women don't trust men with beards.
