FTPD for boot image on Disk-On-Chip

I’m trying to get FTPD working on an M-sys disc-on-chip. I make a boot
image that includes the following:

/etc/passwd
/etc/inetd.conf
/etc/shells
/etc/ftpusers
/etc/shadow
/etc/services

libsocket.so
inetd
ftpd
pipe

These files are from the system I build the image from - the FTP daemon
works on this system. My target system is a Versalogic PC104 with an : AMD
PCNET network chipset - this is loaded and works. I start inetd, but when I
start ftpd it returns with a status of 1. I believe that ftpd encounters an
error upon start and does not run.

Does anyone know what else I need to do (missing lib file or config
file…?)

Doesn’t inetd start ftpd upon request? Check you inetd.conf file and see if
an entry
for ftpd is there already, if so you don’t need to start ftpd by hand.
Also,
try running inetd -d, so you can get some debugging information on what it’s
trying to do.
