Thanks to all who replied to my question on ftp and tcsh problem.
It was indeed /etc/shells which was missing on our machines.  Maybe
ftp defaults to csh when there is no /etc/shells.

On most, if not all, systems, it defaults to

	/bin/sh
	/bin/csh

when there's no "/etc/shells"; I certainly hope nobody leaves "/bin/sh"
out of that list....
