This bug in anonymous ftp has been fixed in release 3.1D. For releases
3.1A-C only, it is necessary to create ~ftp/lib and copy /lib/libc_s into it.
Customer Support has known about this workaround since the bug was discovered.

If you support anonymous ftp on your IRIS-4D, please update it to 3.1D. 
An important ftpd bug has been fixed in that release.
