see this message that is a patch for telnetd:
http://busybox.net/lists/busybox/2001-August/004262.html
This patch hasn't yet made it into busybox but it will allow you to do
what you want because you can use anything as the login program, you
would do something like:
# /usr/sbin/telnetd -l /sbin/reboot
Or perhaps your own shell script in place of reboot that checks the
message, and verifies that a reboot is really desired.
