Thanks! I confirmed the problem (Emacs connects to the
remotehost as an anonymous user even in the non-anonymous
connection) has gone. I see the change you made in tramp-ftp.el
is ingenious!
Unfortunately, I noticed another problem on Tramp ftp. Emacs
attempts to cd to a remote file, not a directory, after copying
a file from the local dired buffer to the remote dired buffer
using the C command. It can be verified even if the remotehost
is `localhost'. Here is a ftp session at that time:
ftp> type binary
200 TYPE is now 8-bit binary
ftp> put /home/yamaoka/file.gz /file.gz
200 PORT command successful
150 Connecting to port 20578
226-41857.2 Mbytes free disk space
226-File successfully transferred
226 0.184 seconds (measured here), 65.23 bytes per second
type ascii
12 bytes sent in 5.9e-05 seconds (2e+02 Kbytes/s)
ftp> 200 TYPE is now ASCII
ftp> cd /file.gz
550 Can't change directory to /file.gz: Not a directory
ftp> cd /file.gz
550 Can't change directory to /file.gz: Not a directory
In addition, the other problem which I reported in the later
part of the message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> is still there.
Anyway, people who have been using ange-ftp for years will not
be able to upgrade their Emacs until the ftp method of Tramp is
completed. I recently began to use Emacs mainly instead of
XEmacs and efs, so I am not an exception. Although the ssh
method of Tramp seems to work very fine, the insecure ftp is
still useful (and fast) especially for using it behind the
firewall.
I also encountered another problems related to Tramp ftp,
however I cannot reproduce them now. I will send reports again
when I can clarify the problems.
