Are you using Emacs+EmacsW32 from OurComments.org? In that case are you 
using the patched or the unpatched version?

Re: EmacsW32; tramp trouble with Tru64

Lennart,

   Sorry.  I normally use the Emacs+EmacsW32 from OurComments.org and it
is the patched version.  Currently I am using the version published
2007.02.25.  I don't really believe it is a problem with the EmacsW32
put out by OurComments.org per se.  I believe it is an issue between
Tramp and Tru64.  I was hoping that someone here might have knowledge of
the problem or a suggestion.

- Nelson

PS - Thank you for the fine work on EmacsW32.  I *really* like
     having it.  It works *very* well for the most part.  And that
     part which doesn't work *very* well, if any, I don't |
     haven't used.

Re: EmacsW32; tramp trouble with Tru64

Thanks, but here is a little problem. The patches for example also 
concerns ftp. Maybe they also have other influences I do not know about.

Could you please try the unpatched version and then report this as a 
bug? (Use the menus Help - Send Bug Report.)

It works for me using:
EmacsNT version:
 GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2005-06-26 on NONIQPC
Tramp version: 2.0.36

when connecting to Tru64 v5.1.

However, I do have problems when running emacs on a SuSE linux box,
because that version of ftp sets the EPSV mode, and the Tru64 ftpd
doesn't seem to handle it.

Is it possible that the ftp.exe you are using is doing the same thing?

I would like to know what ftp program both of you use. I have had 
trouble with the ftp program that comes with MS Windows.

I saw now that GnuWin32 contains an ftp program in InetUtils:

Yes, please do so I can compare with the one I have. Do you remember 
where you downloaded it from? I have a link here to an ftp program here, 
is that the program you are using:

   http://ourcomments.org/Emacs/EmacsW32.html

See "What the patches contains".

Images in W32 build and starttls/smtps question

Hi!
I realize there's a thread on this issue (From December 2006), but
since I just joined the list, I don't know how to easily reply to that
thread, as I don't see the Message-ID and References header in the web
archive.

The thread was had subject "image support in the newer EmacsW32
builds". I just checked out emacs from CVS and built it using MinGW
yesterday, on WinXP SP2. I bootstrapped and built everything using
"make bootstrap" and mingw32-make for the rest. I also compiled vm
into the same folder hierarchy, and it works. But the icons seem to be
monocromatic or what you call it (just grey and black), both for the
emacs toolbar and for the vm icons. The problem mentioned in the
thread I refer to, tagging the pbm's as binaries in CVS was said to be
the problem and that was fixed. So when I got a similar problem
yesterday, I guess something else must be the problem, right? Maybe I
need to install some libraries (or tell configure or MinGW where to
find those libs)? Any idea?

The other challenge I have, is getting vm to send via smtps, using a
setup like this:
  (setq smtpmail-starttls-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com" 587 nil nil))
        smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
        smtpmail-default-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
        send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
        message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
        smtpmail-smtp-service 587
        smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com"
  				     587
  				     "username <at> gmail.com"

If you do not want the prebuilt binaries with image support then perhaps 
the information here can help you:

Had some trouble with the prebuilt binaries, wanted to build myself to
try to sort out exactly where the trouble lies/occurs ... That link
has a specific section on how to get images support. So I'll look into
that when I get home to my WinXP box ... Thanks! :)
