Epoch problem in C-Shell.

I manage an HP9000 model 720 here at NMSU and I've run into a strange
problem, whenever someone logs on at the console and their default shell is
C-Shell epoch doesn't seem to want to read files from their subdirectories.
For example if I log in and do

	cd temp
	emacs temp.dat

epoch still seems to think it's in the root directory. You can explicitly
tell epoch the subdirectory, eg.,

	emacs temp/temp.dat

and it works fine. This seems to happen with the full-blown version of
epoch or the version of emacs that comes with it. By the way the "emacs"
command I used above is just a logical pointer to the epoch binary.
	Seems to me it must be a problem with C-Shell on the HP because the
Korn Shell doesn't exhibit this behavior, but I thought someone here may be
able to help

Any help on this one would be appreciated!
Thanks,
