Can you please tell us *exactly* what to type to reproduce this?

    In GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i386-redhat-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
     of 2002-04-08 on porky.devel.redhat.com
    configured using `configure  i386-redhat-linux-gnu ...
    ...

    Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
    and the precise symptoms of the bug:

    I dired a directory remotely,  C-xd /me@server:/var/www/html/website, open 
    and edit a file, it saves the first time correctly.  For each further edit, 
    it gives a beep and the message "Keyboard macro terminated by command 
    ringing the bell".  Then, emacs thinks that I have an old copy of the file, 
    and gives the messages confirming that I want to edit an old version, and 
    prompting the next time I save to verify that I want to overwrite a newer 
    file.  When the beep comes, the file is not saved properly.
