Hi,
I'm trying busybox 0.61 and are having the following problems.
1)
With inittab I can't seem to get it to use any entry except the first one,
here is my inittab
# /etc/inittab init(8) configuration for BusyBox
::sysinit:/etc/thinstation.init
::respawn:/bin/getty tty1 9600 VC vt100
tty2::respawn:/bin/getty tty2 9600 VC vt100
::ctrlaltdel:/bin/reboot
the tty2 line doesn't seem to work, if I run the command
/bin/getty tty2 9600 VC vt100
from the command line it works fine, bringing up a login in virtual console
2.
I've tried a variety of combinations and are still having no luck, ideas?
2)
This may/may not be related by I'm trying to get a telnetd server to work
that comes with busybox, when I telnet to the busybox machine I get
Trying 172.23.24.99...
Connected to elp.westcoastdhb.org.nz (172.23.24.99).
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
not sure where it gets the "ELP" from as that isn't the host name.
Also, there is no updates in the log files so I have no idea why it hasn't
worked.
Is it possible to use xinetd with busybox telnetd? When I try I get an
error in xinetd saying
telnetd: bind: address already in use
when you telnet into the busybox server. I would like to use xinetd as it
allows you to specify which hosts are allowed.
Cheers
Miles
