ftp on OSF 3.0

Hi-
I have run into a strange problem with the ftp client on a OSF
3.0 machine. Any user that is not a member of the "system"
group cannot use ftp. The session looks like:

> ftp bobo
Connected to bobo.niehs.nih.gov
220 bobo.niehs.nih.gov FTP server (OSF/1 Version 5.60) ready.
Name (bobo:patters2): patters2
331 Password required for patters2.
530 Login incorrect.
Login failed.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.

I never get a chance to enter the correct password.

In this case, bobo is a OSF 3.2 Alpha. However, this problem
is independent of the server to which I try to connect, e.g.
OSF, IRIX, even servers outside our site won't work.

Any ideas?
