We recently aquired Excelans TCP/IP hardware and software for use in
our VAX 11/785.  The package includes TELNET, FTP, and some other
support packages (I wrote a program for the finger socket).

Both the TELNET and FTP software work fine outgoing (to other nodes),
and the TELNET works fine incoming, but the FTP fails to 
allow remote logins (either from our machine to our machine, or from
other machines to our machine).  The error message it returns is

530 Login Failed.
login failed.
after you enter your password.

We have had an engineer from Excelan working on the problem for a 
day or two, but he has gotten nowhere.  He speculates that there
is something wrong with the SYSUAF file, although we have made 
no changes to the file.

any ideas? anyone out there using Excelans TCP/IP?
