Solution> attempts to use FTP via IE?
FTP servers are generally designed to handle
requests, not to interrogate the client. A
client may care which FTP server it's using,
but I've never seen a server who cares about
the client.
If you need to be selective among different
client programs, then you might do better by
disabling FTP access, and switching to HTTP.
Web servers generally have lots of options in
this neighborhood.
Alternatively, you might look at setting up
FTP "guest" accounts on the HP-UX system.
With the chroot() action this implies, you
should be able to avoid exposing any files
outside the guest users' local file tree(s).
("man ftpd", look for "guest".)
You could probably enable some more detailed
diagnostics on the FTP server to see exactly
what MSIE is doing, but, while potentially
interesting, that might not get you any
closer to solving the problem. My guess is
that it's sending a "CWD /" (for no good
reason), which would do less damage in a
guest/chroot() environment.

Good reason to check the permissions there,
if one were needed.

I've grown to expect MSIE not to work with my
VMS (TCPIP) FTP server, but this is the first
I've heard of it getting confused by a
UNIX(-like) FTP server. Remarkable.

It might be helpful to leave some kind of
README file there, containing suggestions to
help the victim find the true path to
enlightenment. (Might save some annoying
phone calls from the bewildered.)
Another nice thing about a typical HTTP
server is its ability to serve a file (like a
README) which has nothing obvious to do with
the original request. (Sometimes it's nice.)
