First, why does Tramp always ask me the password (which is empty) despite I always save it to ~/.authinfo?

I have there many lines of this:

machine win2k login nicolas port smb

> Could you, just for test, work only at one share after you have connected to the

> Windows server

Sorry, as I just discovered problem is not only with dired but with usual c-x c-f (wih ido completion)

here I tried to walk into C:\Mags: (completion list for Mags was empty)

Hi,

SORRY, forgot tramp-verbose

Thanks. Hmm, this looks strange. Sometimes, the smbclient commands work
as expected, sometimes, the responses of a command appear only after the
next command has been sent - this confuses Tramp.

What I have seen is that you change often the shares. This requires a
new connection, always. It is not the default use case.

Maybe this is due to the permanent reconnection. Could you, just for
test, work only at one share after you have connected to the Windows
server?

Best regards, Michael.
