This system is a 486/50 running Esix System 5 release 4.0 version 4.
Since getting bash installed in the passwd file as my login shell I am
unable to ftp login to my account, when I try I get the message
	use dbarker access denied
when the systems guy changes my login shell back to csh everything is
OK (except that bash is no longer my login shell :-().

As bash is accessable to the entire system, access permissions would
not appear to  be the problem. Can anyone shed any light on this?
