Greetings:

Is there a way to perform a remote login to the cog stack?
ssh or telnet perhaps. I've examined the "menuconfig" during
compilation, and have not found anything useful... If this is
possible does anyone know how?

Ok partial success. After working on and off with this project. I
think I'm close.
The telnetd server that comes with the board does not work: (failure
due to a segmentation fault)
This occurs on a freshly compiled kernel, on the kernel that is
available on the virtual cogs
website, and on three different VCMX212 boards...
OpenSSH is a bit too agravating to compile, and making it work is
beyond the
scope of my abilities. A coworker alerted me to some software called
"Dropbear"
it compiled without incident when using the following commands:

./configure --host=arm-linux --disable-zlib
make STATIC=1

Etherway... I can now ssh from the board to the computer, however as
the busybox
included with the board does not contain the following commands:
adduser, passwd
I cannot create a login name and password. Any ideas anyone?
