   We are using Kerberos to get out to Internet from here. Instead of
   "ftp" you have to use the Kerberos command "iftp". To get efs to
   use that instead, I wrote a shell script with the name "ftp" that
   simply calls "iftp".

   But, that doesn't work. Unfortunately, the gateway stuff in efs
   doesn't help either, as you don't login/telnet/rsh to the Kerberos
   gateway.

   What happens when I try to 
   
      (find-file "/ftp@euagate.eua.ericsson.se:") 

   is that efs waits forever and I have to quit using "C-g". This is
   what I get in the "ftp" buffer:

      ftp> open erigate.ericsson.se
      Connected to gwa.ericsson.se.
      You are ebubra.@EBU.ERICSSON.SE (local name *No local name returned),
      at address 138.85.151.47, version 1, cksum 18229
      ^@220 gwa FTP proxy server ready.
      ftp> 

   What do you advice me to do?

      With Kindest Regards
