To open a file on a remote server use C-x C-f "/user@server:PATH_TO_FILE" You can even tab complete to find filenames.

Hey,

You may find it interesting to know that you can use your own emacs to e= dit remote files with the help of "tramp" which comes preinstalle= d with emacs.

To open a file on a remote server use

C-x C-f
"/user@server:PATH_TO_FILE"

You can even tab complete to find filenames.

Cheers
