Subject: bug#7034: 23.2; Open remote files (via FTP) fails on (my) Windows XP port
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 20:57:49 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello,

I'm testing the opening of remote files with GNU Emacs.

That works fine in my Ubuntu 10.04 version (GNU Emacs 23.2.1
(x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.20.1)), but fails in my
Windows XP one (GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)).

To reproduce:
1.- Start Emacs (anyhow).
2.- Type `C-x C-f'.
3.- In the minibuffer, write the PATH of a remote file, accessible via
FTP. For example: `/ftp:ftp <at> ftp.mozilla.org:/pub/mozilla.org/README'.

Am I doing something wrong? Or is it a bug? (This same procedure works
in the Ubuntu port!!)

Thanks in advance.

I've attached the contents of the *Messages* buffer
(standard_messages_buffer.txt), and the *ftp
ftp <at> ftp.mozilla.org:/pub/mozilla.org* buffer
(ftp_messages_buffer.txt).
