[alt.sys.sun] FTP and tcsh don't mix

ramsey@sundance.llnl.gov (Susanne Ramsey) (11/06/90)

I have a sun 4/330 which I just upgraded to SUNOS 4.1.  As we have been de-
bugging we have found that a person who has tcsh as a default shell can not
FTP to that account.  Any other shell seems to work just fine..  We have the
latest version of tcsh ( i think 8-))  

Anyone seen this before..???

I think most administrators have seen this before. It is usually
caused by not having /bin/tcsh defined as a login shell in
/etc/shells.
