Hi, 

I have been searching for a standalone telnet daemon for quite a long time
yet, but didn't find something reasonable so far. Some time ago, Jörg
Schmitz-Linneweber has posted a busybox applet on this list, but due to
security reasons it seems to be a bad idea to have telnetd integrated into
BB. So I have now taken Jörg's applet and made it standalone, with some
additions: 

  http://www.pengutronix.de/software/utelnetd_en.html

- Works standalone, so can be easily taken away on production machines  
- No problems with first login, <ctrl-c> character
- Works with normal /dev and /devfs (for ptys) 
- Not tested with uClibc yet

Thanks to Bjorn Wesen, Vladimir Oleynik and Joerg Schmitz-Linneweber for
the code! 

Any help, ideas and patches are welcome. 

Robert
