the subject says it all :-)
I'm running Xenix 2.3.3.
Installing a user "ftp" makes Xenix TCP responsing to a "guest account". You
can login, but you can't do anything because /dev/socketsys always reports an
open error on 0.0.0.0,20 .
I created the user as follows:

	ftp::1077:4:Anonymous FTP Login:/usr/spool/uucppublic:/bin/true

/bin/true as a shell logs every normal login instandly out.

Maybe I must use a special shell ???

Please reply via mail, 'cause I'm normally too busy to read this group regulary.
