Unfortunately emacs22 says:
"This is not a tramp file"
I assume that this is caused by the non default port 8021 under
which Zopes ftp server is running. The reason for the assumption
is that I can successfully access
C-x C-f /[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/
But I get the same error message as above when I try
C-x C-f /[EMAIL PROTECTED] 21:/
I think the last example is the simplest method to reproduce the
problem.
I can reproduce this, but note what the Emacs manual says:
,----
| You can refer to files on other machines using a special file name
| syntax:
|
| /HOST:FILENAME
| /[EMAIL PROTECTED]:FILENAME
| /[EMAIL PROTECTED]:FILENAME
| /METHOD:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:FILENAME
| /METHOD:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:FILENAME
`----
I can confirm that
/ftp:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/
really works (the ftp-METHOD is important here - it does not work
without specifying this).
And indeed,
C-x C-f /[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/
works fine. FWIW, this is the official method to specify the port
number even in Emacs 21.
Well, I guess I'm preconditioned from older Emacs versions. For
my case I'd be quite happy now and would regard closing the bug
(or at least setting it to wishlist for those dinosaurs like me
who learned it the old way). Feel free to do what you think is
the apropriate action.
Many thanks for the quick response
Andreas.
