But I have nothing in my init.el file which seems to be related to tramp. However, I renamed my init.el file and tried without the -Q and it also worked. And it also now works without the plink. Eg /acomber@uk-rhel53qa32: works. Thanks. I will play about re-adding extracts of my init.el file to find out what screws it up.
