196 automatically if the value '+' is used.
198 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_IFUPDOWN
201 select BUSYBOX_CONFIG_RUN_PARTS
203 Activate or deactivate the specified interfaces. This applet makes
204 use of either "ifconfig" and "route" or the "ip" command to actually
205 configure network interfaces. Therefore, you will probably also want
206 to enable either IFCONFIG and ROUTE, or enable
207 FEATURE_IFUPDOWN_IP and the various IP options. Of
208 course you could use non-busybox versions of these programs, so
209 against my better judgement (since this will surely result in plenty
210 of support questions on the mailing list), I do not force you to
211 enable these additional options. It is up to you to supply either
212 "ifconfig" and "route" or the "ip" command, either via busybox or via
213 standalone utilities.
215 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_IFUPDOWN_IP
218 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_IFUPDOWN
220 Use the iproute "ip" command to implement "ifup" and "ifdown", rather

232 Use the busybox iproute "ip" applet to implement "ifupdown".
234 If left disabled, you must install the full-blown iproute2
235 utility or the "ifup" and "ifdown" applets will not work.

534 bool "Pass TERM type to remote host"
536 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_TELNET
538 Setting this option will forward the TERM environment variable to the

549 log into a machine without telling the username (autologin). This
550 option enables `-a' and `-l USER' arguments.
552 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_TELNETD
555 select BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_SYSLOG
557 A daemon for the TELNET protocol, allowing you to log onto the host
558 running the daemon. Please keep in mind that the TELNET protocol
559 sends passwords in plain text. If you can't afford the space for an
560 SSH daemon and you trust your network, you may say 'y' here. As a
561 more secure alternative, you should seriously consider installing the
562 very small Dropbear SSH daemon instead:
563 http://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear.html
565 Note that for busybox telnetd to work you need several things:
566 First of all, your kernel needs:
570 Next, you need a /dev/pts directory on your root filesystem:
573 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Sep 23 13:21 /dev/pts/
575 Next you need the pseudo terminal master multiplexer /dev/ptmx:
578 crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 2 Sep 23 13:55 /dev/ptmx
580 Any /dev/ttyp[0-9]* files you may have can be removed.
581 Next, you need to mount the devpts filesystem on /dev/pts using:
583 mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts
585 You need to be sure that Busybox has LOGIN and
586 FEATURE_SUID enabled. And finally, you should make
587 certain that Busybox has been installed setuid root:
589 chown root.root /bin/busybox
590 chmod 4755 /bin/busybox
592 with all that done, telnetd _should_ work....
595 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_TELNETD_STANDALONE
