It is a nonstandard extension to csh, so every company seems to have its own
name for the system-wide csh startup file if they have added it.  I have
seen, in addition to /etc/.login, the following:

	/etc/cshprofile		(Plexus)
	/etc/cshrc		(Xenix)

There may well be others.  Try a "strings /bin/csh" (or wherever csh lives
on your system).
