There's a very good chance that there is something in sylogin.com or your
own login.com that should be protected by a check for f$mode not being
interactive.  Look for set terminal as the most common cause. 

If it's not obvious, try submitting an empty job to batch with /noprint/keep,
then review the batch log.  Most things which cause errors in network
connections would also cause errors in batch jobs.

I don't know CMU IP but most FTP servers keep a log which you could read
to find such an error.
