The version of busybox that is included in the uClinux-dist: http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/dist/ has extensions to do most if not all of 3. I can't recall how much of that functionality has made it back upstream. You can have a peek at a much older version of uCLinux-dist at: http://cvs.uclinux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/uClinux-dist/user/busybox/ might save the big download, Cheers, Davidm -- David McCullough, david_mccullough@securecomputing.com, Ph:+61 734352815 McAfee - SnapGear http://www.snapgear.com http://www.uCdot.org
