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....
