So I was trying to create a tftp client for HelenOS, over UDP, but was
having some issues. So I tried running "netecho" and was having a hard
time even getting that to work. I tried running netecho in one
terminal and nettest2 in another with the default parameters. I tried
with the ip's 127.0.0.1 and 10.0.2.15 . I also tried different ports
and other settings, but nothing really seemed to work. The following
steps are the only way I could get netecho with UDP to work at all:

1) In Host: "qemu -cdrom image.iso --redir udp:8080::8080"
2) In HelenOS: "netecho -v -p 8080"
3) In Host: "echo Testing | nc -u localhost 8080", the packets still
don't get through, but this is necessary for some unknowen reason
4) In HelenOS, in separate terminal: "killall netecho"
5) In HelenOS: relaunch netecho with "netecho -v -p 8080"
6) In Host: "echo Testing | nc -u localhost 8080", at this point, the
server will respond correctly

I don't know if there is some sort of HelenOS Networking Tutorial that
I missed, but I am definitely having a heck of a time trying to figure
it out :) I have started looking through source code for answers and
am now looking through the UDP server code. Any tips would be
appreciated :)

Thanks,
Taylor Killian
