I think you are now months ahead of anyone making use of all the new features available.
I recall reading that several people where going to try to mount Windows shares, but don't recall anyone reporting success/fail.
Now with inetd and a larger selection of built-in servers ...
To enable a service:
Add a line to the iptables rules to "accept" incoming connections on <some> port.
Add a line to the inetd that starts a service on that <some> port when a connection is made.
Sorry, still haven't read the list of features in the new Busybox -
But I expect there is at least ftpd, telnetd, httpd, ...
Repeat the above for each service desired to start on demand.
Hmm...
I guess one (or more) of our "launcher" authors could put an enable/disable toggle for each of the services (I.E: each of the firewall rules) in their end-user GUI.
As twobob wrote a few weeks ago, he and I are just posting what we find as we try to learn how to build any-app for a K3 ;
We don't have the slightest clue if, when or how end-users might make use of this stuff.
N.O.J.
Well, almost. We do have an agenda here. There are a few specific things we want to have for our own uses. But most of this stuff is just what falls off the end of the truck while racing around the learning curve(s).
