Try creating a new user and set their shell to /bin/csh and see
if they can get it. There is a file. Not sure at the moment I'm
still trying to install RedHat myself, but it like ftpshell or something.
Anyway, seems that though bash is the default shell it isn't
included in this file while all the others are. One of those nice
easy to use Unix features. Anyway, add the bash shell to this
file, whatever it is, and you should be OK.

I hope this helps.

Hi:
I just upgraded from redhat 5.0 to redhat 5.1. All was well with 5.0.
After the upgrade ftp from remote hosts to the upgraded machine
stopped working (except for anonymous!?). I have checked
all the /etc/ftpusers, /etc/ftpaccess, ...., file. Everything stayed
as before. Whenever I try to ftp to the 5.1 machine from a remote host
I get: "Login incorrect"
"Login failed"
Did anyone faced this problem beore? Please help!

Thanks!!!
It did solve the problem! I knew about the file /bin/shells.
But I was not aware that it did not include my favourite shell:
/bin/zsh. I looked at a redhat 5.0 machine and it is there!?
Why suddenly /bin/zsh is not included anymore in /etc/shells ?!?!?!
Only god knows why.
But it could cause serious trouble to other people. So once
and for all, for all people that are stuck with this trouble:
Look at the /etc/shells, and see if all your used shells are there!
This solves the problem described bellow--->
