In some older versions, I've noticed font-lock-mode is not enabled.  I frequently ssh into a server and it's emacs 21.x

enable font-lock-mode

either

M-x font-lock-mode

or  in your new .emacs file

(global-font-lock-mode 1)

That works.

Hi, 

    I  lost the font color in c++-mode after I deleted  the .emacs file mistakenly. What do I need in my .emacs in order to display different colors in c++-mode? Thanks.

font-lock should be on by default no? (At least in recent emacses)
So... Whats your emacs-version? ie M-x emacs-version
And what is the behavior when you start it with emacs -Q foo.cpp?

Mine is 21.4.1 which comes with linux redhat.
