Tramp and NT-Emacs with plink

[Douglas Gray Stephens]

Kai,

I've just updated my tramp from CVS to 2.0.28, which I'm running on
W2K and Emacs 20.7.1. (Previously I was on 2.0.23).

Anyway, trying to do load a file via plink, the process is stalling
after trying to set the shell prompt.

It appears that tramp.el is setting tramp-end-of-output to a binary
string (
 tramp-end-of-output's value is 
 "///Úá ±OEQÎ
ó‰h‡"

 Documentation:
 String used to recognize end of output.

 Defined in `tramp'.
).  I am using plink as my default method.

I'm using 
 ;;; md5.el -- MD5 Message Digest Algorithm
 ;;; Gareth Rees <address@hidden>
 
 ;; LCD Archive Entry:
 ;; md5|Gareth Rees|address@hidden|
 ;; MD5 cryptographic message digest algorithm|
 ;; 13-Nov-95|1.0|~/misc/md5.el.Z|


I've attached the debug and tramp buffers.

I am having the same problem on redhat 7.1, which again is running
emacs 20.7.1, but this time my default method is ssh (but this time
md5.el is included in the emacs distribution, and is 
 ;;; Compiled by address@hidden on Fri Mar 16 13:18:03 2001
 ;;; from file /usr/src/bs/BUILD/emacs-20.7/gnus-5.8.8/lisp/md5.el
 ;;; in Emacs version 20.7.1
 ;;; with bytecomp version 2.56
 ;;; with all optimizations.


Any suggestions?

Douglas.
