Don't think this would work:

j@uriah 87% rsh -l joerg freefall.cdrom.com ls -ld \~ftp/\*
...
drwxrwx-wx  13 root     ftp-Free  2048 Apr 28 00:14 /home/ftp/incoming
...
j@uriah 91% rsh -l joerg freefall.cdrom.com id
uid=548(joerg) gid=548(joerg) groups=548(joerg), 518(cvs), 523(ports), 552(ncvs)

I cannot see how i'd get ftp-Free group permissions.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
