Good catch, Kevin.  Thanks.  Rookie mistake on my part.

Okay, I changed the owner and group to root and did a "chmod 755 *" on
the directory.  Now all of this works:

(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/tramp/")
(require 'tramp)

i.e., putting the point at the end of each line and doing C-x  C-e
doesn't bring up the debugger.  Thanks!!

But still, when I do "C-x C-f /user@host.domain.tld:~/.bashrc", emacs
tries to open an ftp session.

It might not be related, or maybe it is, but at the end of ~/.emacs is a
hugely long line (stuck in there by Options or something).  It's
probably going to wrap in this email, but, as said, in ~/.emacs it's all
on one line (12,160 chars long!!):

This is part of:

(custom-set-variables
  ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom -- don't edit or cut/paste
it!

So how do I do get rid of this?  Or at least shorten it?  Or should I
just leave it?  A lot of it looks redundant.


Thanks again.
