Since it works for me with the same configuration (GNU Emacs 22.1 / Tramp 2.0.55), I believe this is related to either your FTP client or server. But we'll see. Btw, which versions of FTP client and server are involved? > As another observation: changing the tramp-method from > "ftp" to "smb" (samba), then the dired-create-directory > works (only that I like to avoid that protocol, as > I get problems with long file-names). No surprise. Internally, a complete different machinery is working for you. And which problems with long file names are you running into? > Martin Best regards, Michael.
