The first examples I saw for this specified: /: which I used. But that doesn't work, for me anyway, although it is possible you can configure a default username somehow. So I can leave my emacs file as is - it seems the part I was missing was adding the username. So /@: works As does /@: - where I get a directory listing. You are prompted for a password of course.
