Hi,

  Well, I made this patch a long time ago (08/2002) because it was a
  need of a project, but had no time to send it to you. It adds support
  to `autologin' option of the telnet protocol. It has been used since
  made with busybox 0.60.3 at production and I had no problems with it.
  I have ported it to the HEAD revision of the CVS server (20040211) and
  I hope you enjoy and apply it to the official sources. :)

Thanks a lot!
