Good. Before the "/////" (shell prompt) you should see the output of tramp_file_attributes. But there is no output. So now the next step is to figure out why does tramp_file_attributes not produce any output. In the *debug tramp/foo* buffer you should be able to see the source code of that shell function (it invokes Perl), and then you can change it to invoke "perl -d" or something. If it is not easy to figure out why tramp_file_attributes fails, then it might also be possible for Tramp to make a check whether it fails. Then Tramp could abstain from using it. There is a function in Tramp which looks for a working Perl, this function could be augmented to check for your case, too. But I have no idea how to figure out if your case happens. (I mean, without actually trying tramp_file_attributes, but the check should be before that shell function is defined.) kai -- ~/.signature is: umop ap!sdn (Frank Nobis) _______________________________________________ Tramp-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.freesoftware.fsf.org/mailman/listinfo/tramp-devel
