anonymous login

[Al Gaspar]

A friend of mine tried to set up an 'anonymous' ftp account for me
on a Unisys 5000/80 running System V.2.  We found that rsh restricts
correctly when logging in to the account directly.  However, when that
same account is accessed remotely by ftp, rsh does not restrict.  At
the top of the public directory that my friend set up for the anonymous
account, he was unable to do a cd .. when logged in directly; however,
when logged in by ftp, both he and I could.

Another strange thing was that originally he tried to call the account
"anonymous".  However, that account would only allow access when
logging in directly; if you attempted to log in to the account by ftp,
it said the acount was unknown.  He then changed the name to public and
I could log in but with the cd problem described above.  What gives?
Is there something we missed.  Thanks for any help.

Cheers--

Al
