That's OK. "exec" means "replace the running shell by the called program", so it is OK that you exit directly from the opened bash. I suspect, that you set your prompt in ~/.bashrc. You should check, whether ~/.bashrc is handled by Tramp, for example by checking the used $TERM. Something like this at then end of ~/.bashrc: [ "$TERM" = "dumb" ] && PS1='$ ' > Vinh Best regards, Michael. PS: I'll start a trip tonight, being almost offline for the next 2 weeks. If this proposal doesn't help, we must continue when I'll return. _______________________________________________ Tramp-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/tramp-devel
