The = dropbear-xinetd package was absent while the other = items 
above were present. I created a new = build with dropbear-xinetd but 
the behavior is = the same. 

I used the failsafe = mechanism to get telnet access into the boxes = and 
tried to pull in a good firmware image into = /tmp as described here:


However when dropbear refused to start = even manually I discovered 
there is = no dropbear executable on the = router. 

I compiled this build with = :

  CONFIG_DEFAULT_dropbear=3Dy
# CONFIG_PACKAGE_dropbear is not = set
CONFIG_PACKAGE_dropbear-xinetd=3Dy
# = CONFIG_PACKAGE_dropbearconvert is not set
# = CONFIG_PACKAGE_dropbearconvert-xinetd is not = set

which was the config for 3.10.44-6 release, = as described in 
cerofiles-3.10 github repo, and = which has a working ssh. 

Do I need = CONFIG_PACKAGE_dropbear even though 3.10.44-6 
seems = to get dropbear without including this config = ?

In the absence of dropbear  is = there a good way to transfer files. 
I couldn't find any = file transfer options available in failsafe mode
other = than a wget built into busybox. To use this I = would 
have to setup my mac as a = webserver.
