With Emacs 22, the variable `auto-save-file-name-transforms' guarantees unique auto save file names for remote files. This feature does not exist with Emacs 21. Tramp expanded in order to handle this case; will be available with next Tramp release. As workaround, you might set (setq tramp-auto-save-directory "/tmp/") -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
