   Hello RJ.   
      
   03 Aug 11 20:00, you wrote to me:   
      
    RC> Hi Russell!   
      
      
    RC>     Well, how "stripped down" is it?  I'm not familiar with it.   
      
   128M uses busybox, but allows one to point apt-get to a debian repository, and    
   install/update applications ...   
      
    RC>     The current build doesn't use anything fancy, like the geoip   
    RC> stuff, and is being built in a clean Debian v6 chroot.  (I'm using   
    RC> pbuilder.)  I do plan to enable that kind of thing, especially for the   
    RC> development version of it (like what I'm running of v95.12) but being   
    RC> able to build that requires patching the MBSE BBS build system which I   
    RC> haven't had a chance to work on yet.   
      
    RC>    Anyway;  this is what it currently depends on:   
    RC> libbz2-1.0, libc6, zlib1g, adduser.   
      
    RC>    And you likely would need at least zip & unzip.   
      
    RC>    Is xinetd available on such a system?   
      
    RC>    And if you do this, I'd be most interested it how it goes...   
      
      
   Those should be do-able, will check xinetd when I next boot into that system    
   ... , I no longer need to go that route, but, I think it would be interesting    
   ... :-)   
      
   Thanks,
