Re: OK, lets get this to work!!

Hello Michael,

at Fabrice suggestion I reran you commands directly from the windows shell,
previously I ran them after and M-x shell from within Emacs.  And, miracle,
no more double prompt!!!  Here is the output:

Y:\>plink -l jeg002  -ssh actul01 && exit || exit
Using username "jeg002".

address@hidden ~]$ exec env ENV='' PROMPT_COMMAND='' PS1="#$ " PS2=''
PS3='' /b
in/sh
#$ PS1="#$ "
#$

Hence, it seems to be a windows-emacs issue???

Thanks again for you help,

Gérald

That's exactly what I have feared. The prompt appears twice, and Tramp
is confused. But this happens only after calling /bin/sh; your initial
prompt looks fine.

I mean all shell related init files, like .profile, .bash_profile etc. What
kind of shell is /bin/sh? Just a bourne shell, or linked to another shell?

And, btw, what OS is the remote host running? Could you show the output of

# uname -sr
