SUMMARY: Problem with bash and ftpd

Original question was:
I have installed the bash shell version 1.14.4 on a AXPVME running
D-Unix 3.2C. Using this shell at a terminal o X enviroment provides no
problem. But if I try to access the alpha with ftp I get the message
'access denied' directly after typing the username.

If I use csh as shell everything is alright. This is my workaround.

What is the problem with bash and ftpd?

The answer is rather simple:
bash must be listed in /etc/shells

Many thanks
Ansgar
