Thanks for your message,

Basically I need to use 'telnet' to the ip-addr of my terminal server to access
the serial port of my target box. I may reconfigure the terminal server, but
how can I let gdb to setup an telnet connection to the terminal server and
then take this connection as media for its serial access to the stub on
the target?

Thanks
GF.
