the ping test with redboot is ok : no packet lost

 the ping_test.c  test program output is also ok : no packet lost (see
below)

what I dont understand is that the tftp with redboot works ok on the same
server : I use the redboot : load -m tftp filename  to get the
ping_test.srec file
tftp_client_test.srec (files are about 1 Meg)  from the server but  when an
application
tries it times out after about 3k
from the source code Redboot does not appear do the call tftp_get like the
application
does .
Is there anything special to configure to build the lib that has the freebsd
stack or some other networking
item ????? I will remove kernel instrumentation and asserts & tracing to see
if it improves things.

The redboot build seems to work as it is for networking , can something be
misconfigured to affect the performance of the application ?????

thanks

Henri
