Hah, that's clever. I wonder why it doesn't work in Zope.

Thanks :) The question of why it doesn't work is Zope is what is really killing me. There must be something different with the zope ftp... Here's some stuff I recently found out that helped me with ange-ftp in my .emacs file for zope (require 'ange-ftp) (ange-ftp-set-user HOST USER) (ange-ftp-set-password HOST USER PASSWORD) All the values are double quoted and if you are using your zope ftp server on the default port you need something like this: (ange-ftp-set-user "localhost 8021" "azbok") (ange-ftp-set-password "localhost 8021" "azbok" "mypass") Then when you C-x C-f /localhost 8021:/ It will auto log you in as USER and auto send PASSWORD azbok _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.
