Add the /usr/local/bin/tcsh shell to the /etc/shells file.
There is a special file called /etc/shells to address this problem.  FTP
by default tries to be more secure by only allowing known shells to ftp
in. If /etc/shells doesn't exist, the system defaults to only allowing the
standard, local shells.  If it does exist, it will only allow the users
with the shells listed to FTP. A gotcha: once you create /etc/shells, make
sure ALL shells are in there (one per line).  If you create it and only put
in /usr/local/bin/tcsh, then only the users with tcsh will be able to ftp in.
