+=head1 LIBC NSS
+
+GNU Libc uses the Name Service Switch (NSS) to configure the behavior of the C
+library for the local environment, and to configure how it reads system data,
+such as passwords and group information. BusyBox has made it Policy that it
+will never use NSS, and will never use and libc calls that make use of NSS.
+This allows you to run an embedded system without the need for installing an
+/etc/nsswitch.conf file and without and /lib/libnss_* libraries installed.
+
+If you are using a system that is using a remote LDAP server for authentication
+via GNU libc NSS, and you want to use BusyBox, then you will need to adjust the
+BusyBox source. Chances are though, that if you have enough space to install
+of that stuff on your system, then you probably want the full GNU utilities.

+=head1 NAME
+
+BusyBox - The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux
+
+=head1 SYNTAX
+
+ BusyBox <function> [arguments...] # or
+
+ <function> [arguments...] # if symlinked
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single
+small executable. It provides minimalist replacements for most of the utilities
+you usually find in fileutils, shellutils, findutils, textutils, grep, gzip,
+tar, etc. BusyBox provides a fairly complete POSIX environment for any small
+or embedded system. The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than
+their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide
+the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts.
+
+BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and limited resources in mind.
+It is also extremely modular so you can easily include or exclude commands (or
+features) at compile time. This makes it easy to customize your embedded
+systems. To create a working system, just add a kernel, a shell (such as ash),
+and an editor (such as elvis-tiny or ae).
+
+=head1 USAGE
+
+When you create a link to BusyBox for the function you wish to use, when BusyBox
+is called using that link it will behave as if the command itself has been invoked.
+
+For example, entering
+
+ ln -s ./BusyBox ls
+ ./ls
+
+will cause BusyBox to behave as 'ls' (if the 'ls' command has been compiled
+into BusyBox).
+
+You can also invoke BusyBox by issuing the command as an argument on the
+command line. For example, entering
+
+ ./BusyBox ls
+
+will also cause BusyBox to behave as 'ls'.
+
+=head1 COMMON OPTIONS
+
+Most BusyBox commands support the B<--help> option to provide a
+terse runtime description of their behavior.
