The search for a small Secure Shell server to fit on a laptop with 4
|
||
|
megs ram and no hard disk was fruitless, so Matt Johnston decided to
|
||
|
write his own, and Dropbear is the result. It implements various
|
||
|
features of the SSH 2 protocol, including X11 and Authentication Agent
|
||
|
forwarding. Dropbear is Open Source software, distributed under a
|
||
|
MIT-style license.
|
||

||
|
Features
|
||
|
|
||
|
* A small memory footprint - Dropbear can compile to a 110kB
|
||
|
statically linked binary with uClibc (and only minimal options
|
||
|
selected).
|
||
|
* Implements X11 forwarding, and authentication-agent forwarding
|
||
|
for OpenSSH clients
|
||
|
* Compatible with OpenSSH ~/.ssh/authorized_keys public key
|
||
|
authentication
|
||
|
* Features can easily be disabled when compiling to save space.
|
||
|
* Preliminary TCP forwarding support (-L style only)
