There's a telnet option in busybox -- easiest would most likely be to  
build the buildroot, then

cd build_arm*/busybox*
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=`pwd`/../staging_dir/bin/arm-linux-  
menuconfig
# Now turn on the telnet option, then exit saving config changes
cp .config ../../source/busybox.config
# Previous step is optional, but will mean you can later rebuild the  
buildroot with same settings more easily
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=`pwd`/../staging_dir/bin/arm-linux-
cd ../..
make

Now at the end of that, you'll have a root_fs_arm_nofpu filesystem  
image which has telnet on it.

Thank you! And thanks for Senhor Alexandre Nunes for
his help with Expect. Utilizing his suggestions in
conjunction with some serious hair-pulling I got
Expect running on my gumstix. However, without a
telnet client I wasn't much better off :)
I'll bash this out next week (I have a couple extra
days away from the monitor to do "real" work like
cleaning up the yard... <sigh>).
I do have another question. I saw a post a couple
weeks ago I think, where you or Dave Hylands, perhaps,
mentioned it was a good idea to leave some flash
memory open for system overhead. I have a connex 400g
with 4mb flash.  Right now "df" says 88% used. What
impact will enabling telnet have and, basically, how
much needs to remain free?  For that matter, can I
offload anything to my MMC? Oops, that two questions
:)

yes you can,
I usually NFS mount the buildroot (from my Linux dev. box) to
/mnt/nfs on gumstix, build the applications I want and copy them
to /mnt/mmc.You can add /mnt/mmc to your $PATH shell variable...
