| Nothing happened for 14 seconds.

| Looks like you have entered C-g in order to see what happens.

| Hmm. Maybe you wait until Tramp runs into a time-out? I cannot promise
| it works then, but sometimes telnet takes its time.
I did enter C-g quite quick, because it was not the first failing try ... I 
just tried waiting more , up to 4 minutes, with the same lack of result. In 
addition, I do not have any connection buffer to look at. 
Can it be some network / firewall issue ? (which would not occur with 'raw 
telnet' : remember that basic telnet connection from a fresh terminal window 
does work; and M-x telnet do work too, and M-x shell + telnet does work too) 

Regards 

Stéphane 

| When the time-out occurs, it might be also interesting to see the
| contents of the connection buffer (plus the Tramp debug buffer, as you
| did already).
