At my site (Vax 6320, Ultrix 3.1), users who run bash as their startup
shells are denied access upon connecting to ftp. Here is an excerpt
of a failed session:
Connected to media-lab.media.mit.edu.
220 media-lab.media.mit.edu FTP server (Version 4.146 Tue Jul 25 23:56:36
EDT 1989) ready.
Name (media-lab.media.mit.edu:): foobar
Password (media-lab.media.mit.edu:foobar):
530 User foobar access denied.
ftp: Login failed
I did include bash in /etc/shells which I think where ftp looks up for shells
it allows accesses. Other shells in the file (sh, csh, tcsh) work fine.
Thanks for any info.
