RE: problems with tramp 2.0.12 and 2.0.24 on xemacs

[Thomas Haselberger]

Hello Bruce,

I tried to edit a java file with ntemacs using jde remotely - didn't get as far 
as you because I was asked for an ftp password after trying to open a file.

But I can imagine why a search happens up to the root directory in your case:
when jde loads, it searches up the path for a project file... which is not 
found in your test. 
maybe try to put an empty project file with the default project file name 
(should be prj.el) somewhere up the path and look what happens then ?
-----------snip -----------
(jde-project-file-version "1.0")
(jde-set-variables)
-----------snip------------

regards,
