Assuming you are using R6, the latest debugger plugins should work much
better. They are at ftp://palm:[EMAIL PROTECTED]. But that said
though, if the system is extremely busy (e.g. building the CodeWarrior IDE
:-) and you are trying to debug at the same time connections can still
fail. But let me know the details about it. Believe me, if I had a magic
bullet to fix this problem, I would have used it. Sigh..:-(
