Hi
I would slightly prefer it if this was kept on the list. "Private"
one-to-one support, for eCosCentric is something we charge for, but
we do
try and help people to a limited extent on the lists. But on the
proviso
that the discussion is kept there so everyone gets the (potential!)
benefit of the resolution.
Sorry about that. I was having trouble posting to the list from my
work PC. I figured out what the problem was now
(It doesn't like the html mime option being on)

A prebuilt one. The startup banner is "GNU gdb 5.0-gnupro-00r1"

The fact it happens with new_net implies it's something to do with
the
RedBoot/eCos sharing. Have you given the target its own address? You
can't
allocate both redboot and ecos addresses dynamically.
This sounds a likely cause. I hadn't given the IP address issue much
thought or investigation at this stage . I had used Redboot to program an
appropriate IP address and subnet mask. I had kind of assumed any network
App will look in the same Flash area and by default use the IP params I had
set via Redboot. Maybe this isn't the way it works, I will go and try and
find some explanation on this in the docs.
Regards Geoff
