Thank you for looking into this, Michael.
You are right, this problem is machine-specific. I tried loading Tramp in
Emacs 24.5 on my colleague's Windows 7 laptop (next door office) and it
works.
Alas, I'm not able to determine what is improper about my DNS settings, if
that is the case. All settings seem to be set to default (obtain DNS
server addresss automatically) and no network-related applications show
any symptoms of improper DNS settings. They all work smoothly (Putty,
wget, Firefox, Skype, etc.), both on the wireless at home and the ethernet
at work. As a simple test, I tried unplugging the ethernet cable to go
offline, but Tramp still hangs.
My best workaround at present is to use Emacs 24.3, but that's not a very
good long-term solution...
The Linux commands in bug thread 20015 do not apply to diagnose the
problem in native Windows. Can you suggest some test I can run to analyze
what is causing the problem?
Thanks,
Arni
