Once I connect to a remote computer using tramp. It connects but tramp keeps trying to open the connection. This is the output that is printed again and again. 

 Tramp: Waiting for prompts from remote shell...done
 Tramp: Found remote shell prompt on ‘gnu’
 Tramp: Opening connection for gnu using ssh...done
 Tramp: Opening connection for gnu using ssh...
 Tramp: Sending command ‘exec ssh -q   -o ControlMaster=auto -o   
 ControlPath='tramp.%C' -o ControlPersist=no -e none gnu’

I don't know what's is wrong exactly. Any ideas?

Edit The problem was not really resolved. I looked into recenf as suggested by @MichaelAlbinus. I default recenf but nothing more. My rencenf config is below

(require 'recentf) (setq recentf-auto-cleanup 'never) ;; disable before we start recentf! (recentf-mode 1) For now I'm getting away with C-g until it stop trying to connect.

Then I defined this function when I lose patience.

(defun tramp-refresh () (interactive) (recentf-cleanup) (tramp-cleanup-all-buffers) (tramp-cleanup-all-connections))

    Have you tried tramp-cleanup-all-buffers or tramp-cleanup-all-connections? If you want to poke around a bit before, tramp-list-connections could be a starting point. – p_wiersig Nov 30 '16 at 10:40

    Do you use recentf? It remembers old connections. – Michael Albinus Nov 30 '16 at 13:52
  • Sorry for the delay. Somehow I didn't see your comments. I don't use recentf and tramp-clean-up-all-connection is useful. I guess the problem was with the ssh-agent on the local host. It's working fine now. Thanks. – DJJ Dec 08 '16 at 20:40
  • @DJJ: care to elaborate on the problem with ssh-agent? Thanks – runejuhl Apr 05 '17 at 07:54
  • @runejuhl. I provided more info in the post. I'll try to post more info when the problem shows up again. :-). – DJJ Apr 05 '17 at 08:24
