yes, thats what it is doing. The problem is where it is trying to do this...

Thing is though, I am pretty sure I used the very same tramp version on FC4, 
and had absolutely no problems there - If it was a tramp bug would I not have 
seen it as well ? I think backups where created in the correct (remote) 
place, but I'm not sure ?

For me, it happens after only a few minutes of use, so I would have to save 
VERY often. Not really a solution. 

I will try creating the path and see what happens...
