I've committed a new version of tramp-gvfs.el to the repositories, where
the problem shall be solved. Sometimes (not always), I have problems to
write on the dav server. But according to the apache logs, it seems to
be a problem of the test server I've used (my QNAP TS-459P).

Best regards, Michael.

Now it mounts successfully. 'make-directory' can create directory on 
server, but find-file says
'File not found and directory is write protected'

I try to C-x C-f '/dav:sergej <at> 127.0.0.1:dav/test.txt' however
http://127.0.0.1/dav/test.txt can be opened
Also 'gvfs-cat dav://sergej <at> 127.0.0.1/dav/test.txt' works.

How can I help to debug this issue?

Thanks a lot for you work.

Maybe you try '/dav:sergej <at> 127.0.0.1:/dav/test.txt'

(setq tramp-verbose 10)

Rerun the test. There will be a debug buffer which tells us something,
hopefully. If not, we add other traces.

What happens, if you say 'ls -lR ~/.gvfs/' from the shell?

I found the problem. It was in 2 copies of dbus. One for gvfsd, one for 
emacs.

Now editing and saving works.

It does not want to work properly with test.txt, because of autosaved 
data I think, but it is not problem.

Emacs 23.2 is just out. I don't know a schedule for Emacs 23.3, but it
will take months.

Very likely I will release a Tramp version in between. Also no concrete
plans yet, but *this* I can influence.

Maybe assistant.el could be useful?  This is a good simple task: set up
auth-source entries for various types of accounts.  The manual doesn't
have to explain as much then, and the .ast file can describe the
secrets.el steps to create and populate a Secrets API backend.

If not, it becomes a pretty complicated explanation as you saw.  What
direction would you prefer?

I agree 100% with your changes to auth-source.el you posted previously
to make this interface a possibility.  Deleting and creating
authinfo/netrc entries, which is missing in your version, should not be
too hard: we just need to remember the original line for every parsed
entry in netrc.el (to avoid cases where the parser might create
identical parses for two different lines).

I've committed a patch to the Tramp repository, which shall reenable
this feature for XEmacs. Tested on Ubuntu 10.04 with

"XEmacs 21.4 (patch 22) \"Instant Classic\" [Lucid] (x86_64-linux-gnu, Mule) of Tue Jul 14 2009 on yellow"

Could you, please, check?

Best regards, Michael.

problems with access to Windows_NT server

Hi,

Trying to access the FTP site ftp://win-builder.r-project.org
(instructions described in http://win-builder.r-project.org) by using
'/anonymous <at> win-builder.r-project.org:/' I get this trace:

---<--------------------cut here---------------start------------------->---
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "No such file or directory `/anonymous <at> win-builder.r-project.org:/'")
  signal(error ("No such file or directory `/anonymous <at> win-builder.r-project.org:/'"))
  error("No such file or directory `%s'" "/anonymous <at> win-builder.r-project.org:/")
  dired-at-point()
  call-interactively(dired-at-point nil nil)
---<--------------------cut here---------------end--------------------->---

I can interact with that directory from a browser (konqueror) at
ftp://win-builder.r-project.org without problems.  I'm told that the
problem might be that ange-FTP doesn't understand Windows NT directory
listing format.  Logging in from the shell shows no problems:

Which Emacs version are you using? Since Emacs 22, Tramp is enabled, and
the default method is "scp". In order to access via ftp, you must use

/ftp:anonymous <at> win-builder.r-project.org:/

Thanks Michael.  Trying that with 'C-x d
/ftp:anonymous <at> win-builder.r-project.org:/' seems to go a little
further, but fails later with this in buffer *Messages*:
