Exactly.

It's the same.

I finally found why I had this stange behavior:
there were a (setq file-name-handler-alist nil)  after (auto-compression-mode 
1). Placing file-name-handler-alist before auto-compression-mode made it work.

I still have a problem with (setq backup-by-copying t) only working for root, 
not for other users. I tried setting backup-by-copying-when-mismatch but it 
didn't helped.

Thanks,
