tinylogin was a separate package in days long gone.
Nowadays, the standalone http://tinylogin.busybox.net/ is not
maintained anymore, AFAIK.

I think that tinylogin got merged with busybox some time ago. The
version that is in busybox is supported.

grab busybox, and go to the "Login/Password Management Utilities"
submenu, select the applets you desire.

If you just want the applets for login, user management and password
handling, then disable all other applets.

HTH,
