I know, this is a gdb question. Since I'm not on gdb lists I'll ask here first. I want to use my fast, well understood FreeBSD system and use gdb to attach to remote processes running on a Solaris 2.7 system. I now have a wicked slow Sun system to use to verify that my binaries run properly on Solaris 2.7. It takes longer to configure gdb on that Sun than my regular system takes to configure and build gdb. I want to do nothing other than run binaries on that Sun. I have a working cross-development system on FreeBSD that builds the Solaris executables. I want to attach a gdb running on my FreeBSD system to something running on that wicked slow Sun. I've built a gdb with a target machine of "sparc-sun-solaris2.7", I've got an executable, but I haven't found a way to run something on the Sun that I can attach to in order to debug remote processes. All I've found are ways to connect to remote serial ports. Does anyone know if I can easily do this?
