ftp password problem

Dear Group

Every time I try to ftp to another box (any box) from our DU 8400 running
4.0D, I am able to enter my username but not the password. Instead of a
password prompt being displayed, the ftp session simply states "Password
required for dwebbe" and then "Login incorrect". This situation is causing
alot of problems at present.

There are no .netrc files that I can see which could be causing this
behaviour.

An example session, using the debug option, follows:

x1:/home/dwebbe > ftp -d x2
Connected to x2.davidjones.com.au.
220 x2.davidjones.com.au FTP server (Digital UNIX Version 5.60) ready.
Name (x2:dwebbe): dwebbe
---> USER dwebbe
331 Password required for dwebbe.
---> PASS XXXX
530 Login incorrect.
Login failed.
---> SYST
215 UNIX Type: L8 Version: Digital UNIX V4.0 (Rev. 878)
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp> quit
---> QUIT
221 Goodbye.


Any ideas ??

Thanks and regards
