How do I enable zlib?

[majidhd001]

nano config.h /* Use zlib */ #undef DISABLE_ZLIB

But it doesn't work with -C or -Z.

{19:39} ➭ /usr/local/sbin/dropbear -p 8079 -C Invalid option -C

{19:39} ➭ /usr/local/sbin/dropbear -p 8079 -Z Invalid option -Z

zlib should get autodetected if the header/libraries are found by the configure script. On debian-based systems you need to install zlib1g-dev, or the equivalent for your platform. Dropbear server only enables compression in the server->client direction.
