function as there is no gracefull way of handling failures.
Rename bb_getport to bb_lookup_port, allow a default port to be
specified so it always returns a correct value.
Modify ftpgetput/rdate/wget to use the new interface.
wget/rdate now use etc/services with a falback default value.
Another issue I found was with the iproute utility. While using another
program I found that it failed because the "ip route del" command was
not found. I looked at the full iproute implementation and this command
exists. The busybox version has the "ip route delete" command. I have
created a patch which makes the "ip route del" command an alias to the
"ip route delete" command.
Hello,
I have been using busybox for some time now, for an ARM based platform.
I was very pleased when I tried the 1.00preX series, with all the new
utilities and daemons.
I found out that the ifupdown in busybox does not behave exaclty like
the debian version. Then the pre-up script fails, the interface is
getting up. Also when the post-up script fails the return value is
ignored. Actually everything is always run and the return value is
always true. I looked at the original implementation from debian and
fixed the busybox version to do the same. A patch is attached if anyone
is interested.
archive_xread can be replaced with bb_full_read, and archive_copy_file
with bb_copyfd*
bb_copyfd is split into two functions bb_copyfd_size and bb_copyfd_eof,
they share a common backend.
I noticed a problem with ifconfig in busybox 0.60.5. The matching code
seems to exist in busybox CVS as well, so I'll paste in the patch that
fixed it.
I was running:
# ifconfig wan0 1.2.3.4 pointopoint 1.2.3.5 netmask 255.255.255.255
I was seeing the inet addr and P-t-P addr both being set to 1.2.3.5
(the pointopoint address).
wan0 Link encap:Point-Point Protocol
inet addr:1.2.3.5 P-t-P:1.2.3.5 Mask:255.255.255.255
UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MTU:1500 Metric:1
...
The patch below seems to fix it.
hello
i had some trouble with the filedescriptor in udhcp.
Two things happened on my device:
1.) broken or not connected cable (no dhcp-server)
2.) daemonizing (starting with option -b)
i got a filedescriptor fd=0 from function raw_socket,
after daemonizing (daemon call) the fd is closed.
Client can't recieve data's anymore.
i fixed this problem (like pidfile handling):
in order to fix the problems with round robin DNS reported
by Andrew Flegg:
http://busybox.net/lists/busybox/2003-October/009579.html
This removes the ipv6 specific xconnect dns lookups. I do
not see why that would need to be special cased for ipv6 as
was done, but that will just have to be tested.
So IPV6 people -- please test this change!

the busybox menuconfig triggered my "inacceptable number of spelling mistakes"
upper level, so I decided to make a patch ;-)
I also improved some wording to describe some things in a better way.
Many thanks for an incredible piece of software!

- env vars CONTENT_TYPE, CONTENT_LENGTH, HTTPD_REFERER, REMOTE_USER and
AUTH_TYPE(Basic always).
- POST data pipied now (previous version have loading into memory may be
big size data and reducing with hardcoded limit)
- removed $CGI_foo environment variables, else my have rubbish
enviroment if POST data have big binary file
