Michael, sorry to try your patience. Are you saying the message saying there is a possible permissions problem with .netrc could somehow be related to the format of its stanza? In any case. I already had tried both inline and column format. I need to do some kind of debug or trace on the command to see just what is going on, but don't know how to do it. It seems it is not just password, but the .netrc file that is not being accessed. For example, with the line in .netrc: machine uss-irex.info login Benutzer password Geheim and accessed with command C-x -C-f /ftp:uss-irex.info, if I understand the manual correctly, it should log into the Benutzer account. However, the password prompt I get is: Password for haines@uss-irex.info The manual suggests my account name (haines) is used if no other account is specified. This suggests to me that ange-fpt is not seeing the login information at all. A year or two ange-ftp worked. Since then I upgraded debian to Wheezy, Emacs to emacs 24, and reorganized emacs files (not relevant now because I'm using $ emacs -Q). Haines
