I know but it is not enough in some cases. I think it should be up to the user to set this, however it is already set and autoloaded in tramp-archive.el: (defvar tramp-archive-enabled (featurep 'dbusbind) "Non-nil when file archive support is available.") > - Avoid file names like "/path/to/file.tar/".

Agree, but we sometimes get files from elsewhere with such filenames, of course I never name my files/dirs like this. Anyway I think tramp-archive should not kick in with such filenames or any filenames unless user wants it. Thanks. -- Thierry
