This was a rather misguided reply: busybox already has a TLS
implementation. It can either use its extremely minimal implementation,
good enough to send and receive data but not good enough to perform any
validation, or it can spawn a helper process that calls openssl to
handle TLS. These are used by busybox's wget to access HTTPS resources,
and without them, wget would become less and less useful as more and
more servers require the use of HTTPS.
To answer the original question, no, neither approach is currently
supported in busybox's syslogd.

No offense intended, but are you serious? The code bloat from adding tls
support would completely invalidate the whole purpose of using busybox
in the first place. Surely, if you have the resources (flash, ram, cpu)
for any working tls implementation, you could just install ubuntu and
get on with it.

Hi All,
Does anyone know if TLS is supported in Busybox syslogd ?
Thanks,
