Hi,

I downloaded tramp-2.0.22 and installed it.  I am trying to get it
configured. For now I have to use telnet as the default connection method,
so I executed

(setq tramp-default-method "tm") in the scratch buffer and it returned

"tm"

When I try to get a file from a my home dir on a remote machine:

/fred.here.there.everywhere:~/.emacs

I get 

Method 'tm' didn't specify a connection function in the mini-buffer.

Obviously I missed something in the configuration.  Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Roger Mason
