The fact that you got this message shows that you logged in correctly...

This means just what it says, permission to execute tcsh as a user
denied.  Do an ls -al on /usr/local/bin and see what the permissions and
ownership are -- should be:

-r-xr-xr-x  1  bin  bin .... 

At least, make sure that a normal user has r-x on it.  After that, if
there are no problems logging in, check the permissions of the rest of
your system as well.

You said you were doing pwd_mkdb's -- I'd also check the user's groups,
etc (do an id as that user)... Although if the shell is 555 it shouldn't
make a difference.  Check anyway.
