I use to be able to compile say "ping.c" using gcc -ggdb name to a.out and then load the symbol file and step through it using FreeBSD 2.0. Under 2.0.5 the program loads with no errors and I insert and break at main but when I run to "dest" the program instantly returns to bash prompt. Do I have to recompile the kernel or can I use other options under gcc. Any help would be appreciated.
