Bug#565196: nautilus: ftp Unable to create socket: Invalid argument

[John Talbut]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.28.4-1
Severity: normal

When I try to connect to an ftp server, e.g. ftp.uk.debian.org I get the
message, e.g.:

Could not display "ftp://anonymous@ftp.uk.debian.org/"
Error: Unable to create socket: Invalid argument
Please select another viewer and try again.

It is the same for public ftp and ftp with login.  It is the same whether I use
"Connect to server", "Go To" or a bookmark.

It happens on two desktop computers.  It does not happen on a laptop and a
netbook, both of these connect to the servers normally.  I am at a loss as to
what the difference between the desktops and the portables is, I have been
unable to find anything that makes any difference.  All the computers are
running up to date squeeze.
