9 bool "Support for shadow passwords"
10 default n
11 help
12 Build support for shadow password in /etc/shadow. This file is only
13 readable by root and thus the encrypted passwords are no longer
14 publicly readable.

16 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_USE_BB_SHADOW
17 bool #" Use busybox shadow password functions"
18 default n
19 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_USE_BB_PWD_GRP && BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_SHADOWPASSWDS
20 help
21 If you leave this disabled, busybox will use the system's shadow
22 password handling functions. And if you are using the GNU C library
23 (glibc), you will then need to install the /etc/nsswitch.conf
24 configuration file and the required /lib/libnss_* libraries in
25 order for the shadow password functions to work. This generally
26 makes your embedded system quite a bit larger.
27
28 Enabling this option will cause busybox to directly access the
29 system's /etc/shadow file when handling shadow passwords. This
30 makes your system smaller and I will get fewer emails asking about
31 how glibc NSS works). When this option is enabled, you will not be
32 able to use PAM to access shadow passwords from remote LDAP
33 password servers and whatnot.

35 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_USE_BB_PWD_GRP
36 bool "Use internal password and group functions rather than system functions"
37 default n
38 help
39 If you leave this disabled, busybox will use the system's password
40 and group functions. And if you are using the GNU C library
41 (glibc), you will then need to install the /etc/nsswitch.conf
42 configuration file and the required /lib/libnss_* libraries in
43 order for the password and group functions to work. This generally
44 makes your embedded system quite a bit larger.
45
46 Enabling this option will cause busybox to directly access the
47 system's /etc/password, /etc/group files (and your system will be
48 smaller, and I will get fewer emails asking about how glibc NSS
49 works). When this option is enabled, you will not be able to use
50 PAM to access remote LDAP password servers and whatnot. And if you
51 want hostname resolution to work with glibc, you still need the
52 /lib/libnss_* libraries.
53
54 If you enable this option, it will add about 1.5k to busybox.
