menu "Networking Utilities"
INSERT
config FEATURE_IPV6
bool "Enable IPv6 support"
default y
help
Enable IPv6 support in busybox.
This adds IPv6 support in the networking applets.
config FEATURE_UNIX_LOCAL
bool "Enable Unix domain socket support (usually not needed)"
default n
help
Enable Unix domain socket support in all busybox networking
applets. Address of the form local:/path/to/unix/socket
will be recognized.
This extension is almost never used in real world usage.
You most likely want to say N.
config FEATURE_PREFER_IPV4_ADDRESS
bool "Prefer IPv4 addresses from DNS queries"
default y
depends on FEATURE_IPV6
help
Use IPv4 address of network host if it has one.
If this option is off, the first returned address will be used.
This may cause problems when your DNS server is IPv6-capable and
is returning IPv6 host addresses too. If IPv6 address
precedes IPv4 one in DNS reply, busybox network applets
(e.g. wget) will use IPv6 address. On an IPv6-incapable host
or network applets will fail to connect to the host
using IPv6 address.
config VERBOSE_RESOLUTION_ERRORS
bool "Verbose resolution errors"
default n
depends on PLATFORM_LINUX #because of xsocket() in libbb/xfuncs_prinf.c
help
Enable if you are not satisfied with simplistic
"can't resolve 'hostname.com'" and want to know more.
This may increase size of your executable a bit.
config ARP
bool "arp"
default y
depends on PLATFORM_LINUX
help
Manipulate the system ARP cache.
config ARPING
bool "arping"
default y
depends on PLATFORM_LINUX
help
Ping hosts by ARP packets.
config BRCTL
bool "brctl"
default y
depends on PLATFORM_LINUX
help
Manage ethernet bridges.
Supports addbr/delbr and addif/delif.
config FEATURE_BRCTL_FANCY
bool "Fancy options"
default y
depends on BRCTL
help
Add support for extended option like:
setageing, setfd, sethello, setmaxage,
setpathcost, setportprio, setbridgeprio,
stp
This adds about 600 bytes.
config FEATURE_BRCTL_SHOW
bool "Support show, showmac and showstp"
default y
depends on BRCTL && FEATURE_BRCTL_FANCY
help
Add support for option which prints the current config:
showmacs, showstp, show
config DNSD
bool "dnsd"
default y
help
Small and static DNS server daemon.
config ETHER_WAKE
bool "ether-wake"
default y
depends on PLATFORM_LINUX
help
Send a magic packet to wake up sleeping machines.
config FAKEIDENTD
bool "fakeidentd"
default y
select FEATURE_SYSLOG
help
fakeidentd listens on the ident port and returns a predefined
fake value on any query.
config FTPD
bool "ftpd"
default y
help
simple FTP daemon. You have to run it via inetd.
config FEATURE_FTP_WRITE
bool "Enable upload commands"
default y
depends on FTPD
help
Enable all kinds of FTP upload commands (-w option)
config FEATURE_FTPD_ACCEPT_BROKEN_LIST
bool "Enable workaround for RFC-violating clients"
default y
depends on FTPD
help
Some ftp clients (among them KDE's Konqueror) issue illegal
"LIST -l" requests. This option works around such problems.
It might prevent you from listing files starting with "-" and
it increases the code size by ~40 bytes.
Most other ftp servers seem to behave similar to this.
config FTPGET
bool "ftpget"
default y
help
Retrieve a remote file via FTP.
config FTPPUT
bool "ftpput"
default y
help
Store a remote file via FTP.
config FEATURE_FTPGETPUT_LONG_OPTIONS
bool "Enable long options in ftpget/ftpput"
default y
depends on LONG_OPTS && (FTPGET || FTPPUT)
help
Support long options for the ftpget/ftpput applet.
config HOSTNAME
bool "hostname"
default y
help
Show or set the system's host name.
config HTTPD
bool "httpd"
default y
help
Serve web pages via an HTTP server.
config FEATURE_HTTPD_RANGES
bool "Support 'Ranges:' header"
default y
depends on HTTPD
help
Makes httpd emit "Accept-Ranges: bytes" header and understand
"Range: bytes=NNN-[MMM]" header. Allows for resuming interrupted
downloads, seeking in multimedia players etc.
config FEATURE_HTTPD_USE_SENDFILE
bool "Use sendfile system call"
default y
depends on HTTPD
help
When enabled, httpd will use the kernel sendfile() function
instead of read/write loop.
config FEATURE_HTTPD_SETUID
bool "Enable -u <user> option"
default y
depends on HTTPD
help
This option allows the server to run as a specific user
rather than defaulting to the user that starts the server.
Use of this option requires special privileges to change to a
different user.
config FEATURE_HTTPD_BASIC_AUTH
bool "Enable Basic http Authentication"
default y
depends on HTTPD
help
Utilizes password settings from /etc/httpd.conf for basic
authentication on a per url basis.
config FEATURE_HTTPD_AUTH_MD5
bool "Support MD5 crypted passwords for http Authentication"
default y
depends on FEATURE_HTTPD_BASIC_AUTH
help
Enables basic per URL authentication from /etc/httpd.conf
using md5 passwords.
config FEATURE_HTTPD_CGI
bool "Support Common Gateway Interface (CGI)"
default y
depends on HTTPD
help
This option allows scripts and executables to be invoked
when specific URLs are requested.
config FEATURE_HTTPD_CONFIG_WITH_SCRIPT_INTERPR
bool "Support for running scripts through an interpreter"
default y
depends on FEATURE_HTTPD_CGI
help
This option enables support for running scripts through an
interpreter. Turn this on if you want PHP scripts to work
properly. You need to supply an additional line in your httpd
config file:
*.php:/path/to/your/php
config FEATURE_HTTPD_SET_REMOTE_PORT_TO_ENV
bool "Set REMOTE_PORT environment variable for CGI"
default y
depends on FEATURE_HTTPD_CGI
help
Use of this option can assist scripts in generating
references that contain a unique port number.
config FEATURE_HTTPD_ENCODE_URL_STR
bool "Enable -e option (useful for CGIs written as shell scripts)"
default y
depends on HTTPD
help
This option allows html encoding of arbitrary strings for display
by the browser. Output goes to stdout.
For example, httpd -e "<Hello World>" produces
"<Hello World>".
config FEATURE_HTTPD_ERROR_PAGES
bool "Support for custom error pages"
default y
depends on HTTPD
help
This option allows you to define custom error pages in
the configuration file instead of the default HTTP status
error pages. For instance, if you add the line:
E404:/path/e404.html
in the config file, the server will respond the specified
'/path/e404.html' file instead of the terse '404 NOT FOUND'
message.
config FEATURE_HTTPD_PROXY
bool "Support for reverse proxy"
default y
depends on HTTPD
help
This option allows you to define URLs that will be forwarded
to another HTTP server. To setup add the following line to the
configuration file
P:/url/:http://hostname[:port]/new/path/
Then a request to /url/myfile will be forwarded to
http://hostname[:port]/new/path/myfile.
config IFCONFIG
bool "ifconfig"
default y
depends on PLATFORM_LINUX
help
Ifconfig is used to configure the kernel-resident network interfaces.
config FEATURE_IFCONFIG_STATUS
bool "Enable status reporting output (+7k)"
default y

Activate or deactivate the specified interfaces. This applet makes
use of either "ifconfig" and "route" or the "ip" command to actually
configure network interfaces. Therefore, you will probably also want
to enable either IFCONFIG and ROUTE, or enable
FEATURE_IFUPDOWN_IP and the various IP options. Of
course you could use non-busybox versions of these programs, so
against my better judgement (since this will surely result in plenty
of support questions on the mailing list), I do not force you to
enable these additional options. It is up to you to supply either
"ifconfig", "route" and "run-parts" or the "ip" command, either
via busybox or via standalone utilities.

A daemon for the TELNET protocol, allowing you to log onto the host
running the daemon. Please keep in mind that the TELNET protocol

SSH daemon and you trust your network, you may say 'y' here. As a
more secure alternative, you should seriously consider installing the
very small Dropbear SSH daemon instead:
http://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear.html
Note that for busybox telnetd to work you need several things:
First of all, your kernel needs:
UNIX98_PTYS=y
DEVPTS_FS=y
Next, you need a /dev/pts directory on your root filesystem:
$ ls -ld /dev/pts
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Sep 23 13:21 /dev/pts/
Next you need the pseudo terminal master multiplexer /dev/ptmx:
$ ls -la /dev/ptmx
crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 2 Sep 23 13:55 /dev/ptmx
Any /dev/ttyp[0-9]* files you may have can be removed.
Next, you need to mount the devpts filesystem on /dev/pts using:
mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts
You need to be sure that Busybox has LOGIN and
FEATURE_SUID enabled. And finally, you should make
certain that Busybox has been installed setuid root:
chown root.root /bin/busybox
chmod 4755 /bin/busybox
with all that done, telnetd _should_ work....

config FEATURE_TELNETD_INETD_WAIT
bool "Support -w SEC option (inetd wait mode)"
default y
depends on FEATURE_TELNETD_STANDALONE
help
This option allows you to run telnetd in "inet wait" mode.
Example inetd.conf line (note "wait", not usual "nowait"):
telnet stream tcp wait root /bin/telnetd telnetd -w10
In this example, inetd passes _listening_ socket_ as fd 0
to telnetd when connection appears.
telnetd will wait for connections until all existing
connections are closed, and no new connections
appear during 10 seconds. Then it exits, and inetd continues
to listen for new connections.
This option is rarely used. "tcp nowait" is much more usual
way of running tcp services, including telnetd.
You most probably want to say N here.
