Tramp login failure on Mac OS X |

Hello,
I'm attempting to use Tramp in Carbon Emacs, version 21.3.50.1, without
much success. I normally use either ssh or sftp to access files on the
machine, so first I tried setting tramp-default-method to ssh. I got
messages that said "Waiting 60s for prompt from remote shell" and then
"Login failed." In the list archives I found a suggestion to use sshx,
but that didn't work either:
tramp: Opening connection for matt@www.example.com using sshx...
tramp: Waiting for prompts from remote shell
tramp: Waiting 60s for prompt from remote shell
tramp-process-actions: Login failed
It's quite possible that I'm doing something wrong. I have:
(require 'tramp)
(setq tramp-default-method "sshx")
in my .emacs, and I'm trying to edit a file by doing something like:
C-x C-f /matt@www.example.com:file.txt
If I understand correctly, I should see a password prompt in the
minibuffer shortly after typing the above and hitting return. I'm
stumped. Does anyone see what the problem might be?
Thanks,
Matt
