Ok, now I'm curious. If this is really a problem, why didn't you need to similarly prefix every busybox command so you can call bbls and bbcp and install them in parallel to the gnu versions? Or wouldn't it make more sense to do what busybox has been doing for the past decade and use "./dropbearmulti scp"? (Or two different directories full of names, with your $PATH selecting which ones to use?) Personally I dunno why it doesn't just call the server functionality sshd and have dropbear _be_ the multiplexer, but oh well. It's not like openssh was the first ssh either, they forked off an existing one that closed up... Rob -- Latency is more important than throughput. It's that simple. - Linus Torvalds
