 Using the `gdbserve.nlm' program
 ................................
 
    `gdbserve.nlm' is a control program for NetWare systems, which
 allows you to connect your program with a remote GDB via `target
 remote'.
 
    GDB and `gdbserve.nlm' communicate via a serial line, using the
 standard GDB remote serial protocol.
 
 _On the target machine,_
      you need to have a copy of the program you want to debug.
      `gdbserve.nlm' does not need your program's symbol table, so you
      can strip the program if necessary to save space.  GDB on the host
      system does all the symbol handling.
 
      To use the server, you must tell it how to communicate with GDB;
      the name of your program; and the arguments for your program.  The
      syntax is:
 
           load gdbserve [ BOARD=BOARD ] [ PORT=PORT ]
                         [ BAUD=BAUD ] PROGRAM [ ARGS ... ]
 
      BOARD and PORT specify the serial line; BAUD specifies the baud
      rate used by the connection.  PORT and NODE default to 0, BAUD
      defaults to 9600bps.
 
      For example, to debug Emacs with the argument `foo.txt'and
      communicate with GDB over serial port number 2 or board 1 using a
      19200bps connection:
 
           load gdbserve BOARD=1 PORT=2 BAUD=19200 emacs foo.txt
 
 _On the GDB host machine,_
      you need an unstripped copy of your program, since GDB needs
      symbols and debugging information.  Start up GDB as usual, using
      the name of the local copy of your program as the first argument.
      (You may also need the `--baud' option if the serial line is
      running at anything other than 9600bps.  After that, use `target
      remote' to establish communications with `gdbserve.nlm'.  Its
      argument is a device name (usually a serial device, like
      `/dev/ttyb').  For example:
 
           (gdb) target remote /dev/ttyb
 
      communications with the server via serial line `/dev/ttyb'.
