I have yet to get this to work.  I think the redboot/ecos ethernet and tcp 
code is _real_ shaky.  I'm not sure if its just this target's driver or 
what, but debugging hasn't worked for me and I messed with it for a full 
day.

You might try rebuilding redboot from the updated sources.  I've tried this 
and the ping is a bit more reliable but still no dice on the debugger.

Good luck.
