I tried with just-pulled 7.02 and could not reproduce it either. It
looks like a tramp problem.

Mark, try evaluating the following form (but note that the IP address
looks like a DHCP address assigned by your router, so you should make
sure that it is still correct):

(file-attributes "/ssh:metaphysics@192.168.2.100:/home/mark/metaphysics/index.html")

You can evaluate it by placing the cursor after the closing paren
of the form and pressing ``C-x C-e''. Do you get the same error?
Either way it probably has nothing to do with org, but if you do
get the same error, then it *definitely* has nothing to do with org.

HTH,
Nick
