[LTP] [PATCH 1/6] ftp/ftp01: Use tst_net.sh

[Akihiko Odaki]

Hi,

Thanks for suggestions, improvements, and merging.

This test assumes FTP is set up and running and that defeats the purpose 
of netns. It is certainly possible to say the FTP test functionality is 
covered with testcases/network/stress/ftp and this test can be removed, 
but for now, the fixes allows me to execute net.tcp_cmds tests without 
explicitly excluding this.

Regards,
Akihiko Odaki
