tramp (2.0.49); tramp times out when connecting

[Kurt Steinkraus]

Hi,

I'm trying for the first time to use tramp on a mac running OS X 10.4,
and it doesn't work.  The symptoms are that tramp waits 60s, then
times out.  Looking at the *tramp/scp* buffer, it seems that somehow
tramp isn't recognizing the password prompt, or isn't able to
communicate with it.  The prompt is right there, and I can enter my
password into that buffer (after tramp times out) and login (but then
commands at the prompt don't work).

This happens both running in the Carbon Gnu Emacs port from
http://home.att.ne.jp/alpha/z123/emacs-mac-e.html and in the emacs
bundled with OS X.  It happens with and without my .emacs file.  It
happens with the bundled version of tramp, 2.0.49, and the latest,
2.1.3.  It happens using either scp or ssh as the default method.  It
happens when trying to connect to any of a number of different hosts.
It happens even though process-connection-type and
tramp-process-connection-type are both t (see
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/tramp-devel/2003-11/msg00031.html).

Attached are the *tramp/scp* buffer and the debug buffer.

Any ideas?
