Can you copy the /etc/passwd from eg. your host computer where you know what the password is to the target computer (where telnetd is running) and then try to login? > when I inoked > /bin/login > ml403-mirek login: mirek > login: no valid shadow pasword > > Maybe the password issue is the source of the problem that telnet does not > start. > > The config files in the /etc directory look like that: > > ls /etc > fstab group gshadow inetd.conf init.d passwd services > Could be that /etc/passwd is not being read at all if /etc/shadow is present. Wait a minute, your listing doesn't show /etc/shadow file?! Have you checked that you have all prerequisites for shadow passwords? I've just glanced over the loginutils/Config.in in the busybox source tree. I'm not using shadow passwords so I can't be of much help if you need /etc/shadow. Also try to *not* use /etc/shadow, insted use only /etc/passwd. In case you don't have plain /etc/passwd, I use this one, where I can login on my target as follows: user: root pass: pass /etc/passwd: root:AiADGkJIfIlXk:0:0:administrator:/:/bin/sh nobody:*:254:254:nobody:/var/empty:/bin/sh logout:gfr8cijmRSDck:498:506:logout:/: Best regards, hinko -- ČETRTA POT, d.o.o., Kranj Planina 3 4000 Kranj Slovenia, Europe Tel. +386 (0) 4 280 66 03 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Http: www.cetrtapot.si _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list busybox@busybox.net http://busybox.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/busybox
