Tramp hanging on connection to remote host.

[gerald . jean]

Hello,

I am connecting to a Linux box (RedHat) from a Windows XP workstation
running Emacs 23.3.  In the past I connected through FTP (ange-ftp) with no
problems.  I am now trying to connect using TRAMP with with default-method
set to pscp.  After asking for password TRAMP hangs for ever, until I hit
C-g. Here are my TRAMP relevant settings:

(add-to-list 'Info-default-directory-list "c:/Emacs/emacs-23.3/info/")
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/tramp/lisp/")
(setq tramp-default-method "pscp")
(setq tramp-verbose 10)
(require 'tramp)

And here is what is printed the *Messages* buffer:

Tramp: Opening connection for address@hidden using pscp...
Tramp: Sending command `plink -l jeg002  -ssh actul01 && exit || exit'
Tramp: Waiting for prompts from remote shell
Tramp: Sending password
Tramp: Sending command `plink -l jeg002  -ssh actul01 && exit || exit'
Tramp: Found remote shell prompt on `actul01'

Running plink from a shell works fine.

Thanks for any support,
