ftp login problem using wu-ftpd

[Stevan Ignjatovic]

Hi all,

I ported Linux-2.6.30-rc8 on my custom mpc885 board. The filesystem I am
using is jffs2 which I created from
eldk-4.2/ppc_8xx/images/ramdisk_image.gz. Linux boots fine and I can
telnet to the board but I cannot ftp:

# ftp 10.8.1.5
Connected to 10.8.1.5.
220 10.8.1.5 FTP server (Version wu-2.6.2(1) Wed Apr 2 09:10:49 MEST
2008) ready.
530 Please login with USER and PASS.
530 Please login with USER and PASS.
KERBEROS_V4 rejected as an authentication type
Name (10.8.1.5:root): root

Here ftp connection hangs. Do I have to create another user (beside
root) in order to make ftp connection? Earlier, when I was using 2.4
linux I didn't have problems with ftp connection as root.

Thanks in advance.

check your kernel configuration. You might be missing options like
CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS or CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS or similar.
