Okay, I haven't tried this, but that's because it appears I need to add 
code to my .emacs file for every username/hostname combination that I 
want to log in to.

Is there no way I can specify both the username to use to log in with 
*and* the username to sudo to as part of the C-x C-f process?

cheers,

Chris
