10config FEATURE_SHADOWPASSWDS
11 bool "Support for shadow passwords"
12 default y
13 help
14 Build support for shadow password in /etc/shadow. This file is only
15 readable by root and thus the encrypted passwords are no longer
16 publicly readable.
17
18config USE_BB_PWD_GRP
19 bool "Use internal password and group functions rather than system functions"
20 default y
21 help
22 If you leave this disabled, busybox will use the system's password
23 and group functions. And if you are using the GNU C library
24 (glibc), you will then need to install the /etc/nsswitch.conf
25 configuration file and the required /lib/libnss_* libraries in
26 order for the password and group functions to work. This generally
27 makes your embedded system quite a bit larger.
28
29 Enabling this option will cause busybox to directly access the
30 system's /etc/password, /etc/group files (and your system will be
31 smaller, and I will get fewer emails asking about how glibc NSS
32 works). When this option is enabled, you will not be able to use
33 PAM to access remote LDAP password servers and whatnot. And if you
34 want hostname resolution to work with glibc, you still need the
35 /lib/libnss_* libraries.
36
37 If you need to use glibc's nsswitch.conf mechanism
38 (e.g. if user/group database is NOT stored in /etc/passwd etc),
39 you must NOT use this option.
40
41 If you enable this option, it will add about 1.5k.
42
43config USE_BB_SHADOW
44 bool "Use internal shadow password functions"
45 default y
46 depends on USE_BB_PWD_GRP && FEATURE_SHADOWPASSWDS
47 help
48 If you leave this disabled, busybox will use the system's shadow
49 password handling functions. And if you are using the GNU C library
50 (glibc), you will then need to install the /etc/nsswitch.conf
51 configuration file and the required /lib/libnss_* libraries in
52 order for the shadow password functions to work. This generally
53 makes your embedded system quite a bit larger.
54
55 Enabling this option will cause busybox to directly access the
56 system's /etc/shadow file when handling shadow passwords. This
57 makes your system smaller (and I will get fewer emails asking about
58 how glibc NSS works). When this option is enabled, you will not be
59 able to use PAM to access shadow passwords from remote LDAP
60 password servers and whatnot.
61
62config USE_BB_CRYPT
63 bool "Use internal crypt functions"
64 default y
65 help
66 Busybox has internal DES and MD5 crypt functions.
67 They produce results which are identical to corresponding
68 standard C library functions.
69
70 If you leave this disabled, busybox will use the system's
71 crypt functions. Most C libraries use large (~70k)
72 static buffers there, and also combine them with more general
73 DES encryption/decryption.
74
75 For busybox, having large static buffers is undesirable,
76 especially on NOMMU machines. Busybox also doesn't need
77 DES encryption/decryption and can do with smaller code.
78
79 If you enable this option, it will add about 4.8k of code
80 if you are building dynamically linked executable.
81 In static build, it makes code _smaller_ by about 1.2k,
82 and likely many kilobytes less of bss.
83
84config USE_BB_CRYPT_SHA
85 bool "Enable SHA256/512 crypt functions"
86 default y
87 depends on USE_BB_CRYPT
88 help
89 Enable this if you have passwords starting with "$5$" or "$6$"
90 in your /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow files. These passwords
91 are hashed using SHA256 and SHA512 algorithms. Support for them
92 was added to glibc in 2008.
93 With this option off, login will fail password check for any
94 user which has password encrypted with these algorithms.

111 default n
112 depends on ADDUSER || ADDGROUP
113 help
114 Enable sanity check on user and group names in adduser and addgroup.
115 To avoid problems, the user or group name should consist only of
116 letters, digits, underscores, periods, at signs and dashes,
117 and not start with a dash (as defined by IEEE Std 1003.1-2001).
118 For compatibility with Samba machine accounts "$" is also supported
119 at the end of the user or group name.

186 Note that you can save a few bytes by disabling it and
187 using login applet directly.

189 this script approximates getty:

214 login to clean up things such as utmp entries or PAM sessions
215 when the login session is complete. If you use PAM, you
216 almost always would want this to be set to Y, else PAM session
217 will not be cleaned up.
