Telnet password assignation

I think I found the solution by myself on Nios Wiki --> Login HOWTO :

---------------------------------------------------------

Busybox -->

Login/Password Management Utilities -->

[*] Use internal DES and MD5 crypt functions

[*] getty

[*] login

Core Applications --->

Method 2, for Fedora, and others that don't have mkpasswd to encrypt password.

Change passwd file, remove the 'x' for root entry

root::0:0:root:/:/bin/sh

ftp:x:14:50:FTP User:/home/ftp

Boot nios2 uClinux, login as root without password needed. Then run "passwd", enter your new password. Now you can save the content of /etc/passwd on your nios2 uClinux.
