Hello Zhu, please don't drop xemacs-beta from this discussion, which others may have any interesting in too. Others may also help to find a solution, so don't write to me alone. First, what's your current value of efs-ftp-program-args? Copy the following paragraph to an XEmacs *scratch* buffer and try: ; C-u (universal-argument) ; C-x C-e (eval-last-sexp) ; at the end of the following line: efs-ftp-program-args Please send us the result. Try putting the following setq into your user-init-file: (setq efs-ftp-program-args '("-i" "-n" "-g" "-v")) This is how you can find what your user-init-file is: ; C-u (universal-argument) ; C-x C-e (eval-last-sexp) ; at the end of the following line: user-init-file I get: "c:\\Users\\AichnerAd\\.emacs" Good Luck, Adrian zhu> Thanks, zhu> Zhu Wang <lines deleted by Adrian> -- Adrian Aichner mailto:adrian＠xemacs.org http://www.xemacs.org/
