Tramp and Win2K

[Daniel S. <ds...@ec...>]

I'm having trouble getting Tramp working under Windows 2000 with Xemacs.

During initialization Tramp does an 'ls' and 'test' to try to figure some
stuff out.  This is what's in the tramp debug buffer.

# Finding command to check if file exists
$ ls -d \ 2>/dev/null; echo tramp_exit_status $?
ls:  2: No such file or directory
tramp_exit_status 1
$ test -e \ 2>/dev/null; echo tramp_exit_status $?
tramp_exit_status 1
$ /bin/test -e \ 2>/dev/null; echo tramp_exit_status $?
sh: /bin/test: No such file or directory
tramp_exit_status 127
$ /usr/bin/test -e \ 2>/dev/null; echo tramp_exit_status $?
tramp_exit_status 1


It appears that somewhere along the line the '/' is getting converted to '\'
which, obviously, causes problems.

I'm connecting using plink to a Linux machine.  Is there any way I can
prevent this slash flip?
