Thanks to Sheila H. Franklin sfrankl_at_nswc.navy.mil
who responded with the obvious gotcha that I missed.
Sheila Franklin brought to my attention that a login shell not listed in
/etc/shells will not be permitted to ftp into the system.

Subject: FTP setup question
Hello out there in Digital UNIX land!
Simple question here. I have RTFM and tried the FAQs but I am missing
something real tiny and real simple...
How can I make my new Digital UNIX 4.0 system allow non-privileged users to
ftp in (with username and password -- no anon. ftp allowed)?
>From system-x the non privileged user can ftp open systems a,b,c, etc.
But, from systems a,b and c the non-privileged user cannot ftp open
system-x and instead receives the following error message:
530 User <username> access denied.
Privileged accounts do not seem to be affected. Huh? What is missing? I
keep looking for data on ftp setup but everything I find wants to explain
how to setup an anon. ftp service.....
Your help is greatly appreciated.
