When I run /usr/bsd/ftp on an SGI (8.3 or 8.4) it picks somebody else
as the default username:
Name (ftp.gnu.org:bzh):
When I run /usr/athena/bin/ftp, it correctly discovers I am jfc.
I suspect a utmp/wtmp handling bug, but the only file in /var/adm that
contains the string "bzh" is "wtmp.0" which I presume to be an older
version of the file.
