>In order to test the vxWorks as a target I changed boards/standards.exp to reflect my settings (IP, username, password). Then I reconfigured vxWorks to include a FTP and telnet server (using the same username/password combination ad in boards/standard.exp).</P
><P
>With this setup and some minor modification (e.g. replacing echo by printf) in my test cases I could test my vxWorks system. It sure does not seem to be a correct setup by DejaGnu standard. For instance, it still loading /usr/share/dejagnu/baseboards/unix.exp instead of vxWorks. In any case I found that (at least under WindowsNT) I did not find out how the command line would let me override settings in my personal config files.</P
