OK, please submit a Bugzilla report against the eCos ConfigTool (version
"CVS") using the instructions at:
http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/problemreport.html
I suspect that this issue is caused by a difference in behaviour between the
Windows-native and Cygwin versions of the Tcl library which we need to
accommodate either in the CDL library or in the eCos Configuration Tool
itself. It would be helpful if you could try accessing the remote
repository via a logical drive letter and add your conclusion to the bug
report.
Thank you for the feedback.
