Kai, you work fast; thanks for updating the XEmacs tramp package!

Except for the texi issue with @copying which may require an upgrade
of XEmacs makeinfo version requirement to 4.2 :-(

Thanks for your help, Kai!

-t -t does the trick.

Now I get farther:

Entering debugger...
tramp: Setting shell prompt
tramp: Waiting 30s for `unset CDPATH'
tramp: Waiting 30s for `unset MAIL MAILCHECK MAILPATH'
tramp: Waiting 30s for `set +o vi +o emacs'
tramp: Waiting 30s for `HISTFILE=$HOME/.tramp_history; HISTSIZE=1'

tramp: Waiting 30s for remote `/bin/sh' to come up...
tramp: Initializing remote shell
tramp: Waiting 60s for shell or passwd prompt from sunsite.dk
tramp: Opening connection for address@hidden using scpx...

It waits on "Setting shell prompt" now.

When I quit, I get this (having done toggle-debug-on-quit):

Signaling: (quit)
  accept-process-output(#<process "*tramp/scpx address@hidden" pid 2300

  expand-file-name("/address@hidden/.cvsrc")

  call-interactively(find-file)

And here's "*tramp/scpx address@hidden":

What could I try next?

Thanks in advance,
