Vieweing is really the same as transferring. After all, any remote file that you wish to view must be transferred to your local display somehow -- that may be by ftp, X, telnet, etc. Regardless of the method, it is still transferred to the local machine so that it can be displayed.
Even if you give them access to the AIX box, and allow them to view files there, they could still cpoy and paste the information back to their local machines. So, in other words, I dont think it is possible to do what you are asking (unless i am misunderstanding your question).

NAME
ftp - FTP client configuration file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp
DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and
are ignored.
Behavior Directives
The ftp file supports the following behavior directives:
FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send
LIST instead. In order to make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set
FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes by default.
If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is
specified in /etc/default/ftp.
