Wayne,
I know I have been able to do the change without namefmt 1, but I
couldn't remember the sequence.  
Thanks again to the list for the most useful information on the planet.

Bruce, I've noticed this quirk myself and I think it has to do with 
specifying the leading forward slash.  If you omit it on the first time 
you try the cd command, it assumes you want to change to a library 
instead of a directory in the IFS.  The only way to reset it is to quit 
ftp and start over, being careful to specify the leading slash, i.e., cd

/hbos the first time.
