trylink: explain how to modify link and drastically decrease amount
of padding (unfortunately, needs hand editing ATM).
*: add ALIGN1 / ALIGN2 to global strings and arrays of bytes and shorts

Convert telnet to it. Now this works:
telnetd -b [::1]:1234 - bind to IPv6 non-standard port
telnet [::1]:1234 - connect to IPv6 non-standard port
telnet ::1 1234 - same
This does not require ANY ipv6-specific code in applets
(no struct sockaddr_in6. In fact, no sockaddr_in, too).
It is impossible to formulate sane ABI based on
size of ulong because it can be 32-bit or 64-bit.
Basically it means that you cannot portably use
more that 32 option chars in one call anyway...
Make it explicit.
Hi,
Well, I made this patch a long time ago (08/2002) because it was a
need of a project, but had no time to send it to you. It adds support
to `autologin' option of the telnet protocol. It has been used since
made with busybox 0.60.3 at production and I had no problems with it.
I have ported it to the HEAD revision of the CVS server (20040211) and
I hope you enjoy and apply it to the official sources. :)
Thanks a lot!
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.
in order to fix the problems with round robin DNS reported
by Andrew Flegg:

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!

xconnect helper routine which does:
-address and port resolving
-tries to connect to all resolved addresses until connected
-uses getaddrinfo, so works for IPv6 too
This patch also ports rdate, telnet, and wget to use the new
xconnect function. Thanks Bart!
1. busybox-telnet dosn't inform server about the size of terminal screen.
In the world of xterminals and frame buffers it's rather horrible
to use fixed 80x24 region in upper-left corner of screen/window.
2. If client sends character 0x0d to the server then sends character 0x0a
the server eat the second byte (0x0a) - it's described in telnet RFC.
Client should send two bytes ( 0x0d + 0x0a or 0x0d + 0x00 ) insted of
one 0x0d byte.
3. busybox telnet implementation wasn't 8bit clean (look at 0xff byte).
I need it because I have to use binray transfer like rz/sz. So when
I resloved the problem (2) I corrected this one two.
This also contains a small cleanup patch from vodz, and some minor editing
by me.
