Enter your bug report in this message, including as much detail as you possibly can about the problem, what you did to cause it and what the local and remote machines are.
If you can give a simple set of instructions to make this bug happen reliably, please include those. Thank you for helping kill bugs in TRAMP. Another useful thing to do is to put (setq tramp-debug-buffer t) in the ~/.emacs file and to repeat the bug. Then, include the contents of the *tramp/foo* buffer and the *debug tramp/foo* buffer in your bug report. --bug report follows this line-- Tramp hangs when visiting directories on a remote FreeBSD machine from a Linux machinr. The hangup occurs when Tramp is trying to send tramp_file_attributes: tramp: Setting shell prompt tramp: Remote `/bin/sh' groks tilde expansion, good tramp: Finding command to check if file exists tramp: Finding a suitable `ls' command tramp: Checking remote `/bin/ls' command for `-n' option tramp: Testing remote command `/bin/ls' for -n...okay tramp: Using remote command `/bin/ls' for getting directory listings tramp: Finding true name for `/scpx:ug.cs.sunysb.edu:/home/f/kifer/' tramp: Check /home tramp: file attributes with perl: /scpx:ug.cs.sunysb.edu:/home tramp: Sending the Perl script `tramp_file_attributes'... The same works when tramping to another Linux or Solaris. Moreover, I have another, older copy of Emacs with an earlier Tramp: Emacs : GNU Emacs 21.3.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit) of 2004-08-04 on kiferserv.kiferhome.com Package: tramp (2.0.39) and tramp does work when visiting files on the same FreeBSD machine. The setup is the same in both cases, and the tests were run 1 min apart. Hope this can be fixed soon.
