[bug-inetutils] ftpd with USB gadget ethernet issue

[Barnes, Clifton A.]

        I’m trying to use the ftpd server on an Atmel AT91 ARM processor through a USB gadget Ethernet connection.  The issue that I’m seeing is that when I try to connect to the FTP server with no Ethernet cable attached (eth0 is down), I am unable to connect to the FTP server.  However, when I plug in the Ethernet cable (eth0 is up), then everything works perfectly through the usb0 Ethernet interface.  Is there some dependency with ftpd that requires an eth0 interface to be up for it to work on any interface?  I’m also getting a bunch of “Alignment trap: ftpd (1080) PC=0x00012084 Instr=0xe59a3010 Address=0x00028bae FSR 0x001” messages when it’s working properly and I’m connected.  I configured and built ftpd using –host=arm-linux.

Thanks,
