Re: [ECOS] TCP Stack Testing problem

Thanks a lot.

I have tried to compile redboot code and tried to generate library but it 
was giving lot of errors and warnings.

I want to ping to target system.

To do that is it compulsory to go for redboot support.Is there any other way 
apart form redboot package selection.


Regards,
Madhava S
