This is solved in the recent Emacs trunk. You could upgrade to that developer version Emacs 24.3.50, or use the latest Tramp release 2.2.8. I've tried to find the change which made it happen, but there is no obvious one. So I cannot offer you a patch for the builtin Tramp version of Emacs 24.3. > thanks, > allan Best regards, Michael.
