Hi,
I've been using WinAVR for about a week now and really enjoying it as a refreshing change from some of the more advanced micros I usually work with.
Then all of a sudden, part way through a 'make' of my project my Sygate Personall Firewall popped up to say:
File Description : C:\WinAVR\libexec\gcc\avr\3.4.3\cc1.exe File Path : C:\WinAVR\libexec\gcc\avr\3.4.3\cc1.exe Process ID : 0xBDC (Heximal) 3036 (Decimal) Connection origin : local initiated Protocol : Raw Ethernet Local Address : 0.0.0.0 Local Port : 0 Remote Name : Remote Address : 0.0.0.0 Remote Port : 0 Ethernet packet details: Ethernet II (Packet Length: 56) Destination: ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff Source: 00-03-47-d3-f2-03 Type: ARP (0x0806) Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) Hardware type: Ethernet (0x0001) Protocol type: IP (0x0800) Hardware size: 6 Protocol size: 4 Opcode: Request Sender hardware address: 00-03-47-d3-f2-03 Sender IP address: 192.9.200.221 Target hardware address: 00-00-00-00-00-00 Target IP address: 192.9.200.71 Binary dump of the packet: 0000: FF FF FF FF FF FF 00 03 : 47 D3 F2 03 08 06 00 01 | ........G....... 0010: 08 00 06 04 00 01 00 03 : 47 D3 F2 03 C0 09 C8 DD | ........G....... 0020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 C0 09 : C8 47 05 04 88 03 50 18 | .........G....P. 0030: FE 4F F6 DB 00 00 00 00 : | .O......
So cc1.exe is trying to send an ARP packet onto our network ?!?!?
W! T! F! ???
Does anyone have ANY idea what this compiler might be doing sending network packets??
I got my WinAVR (the latest, about a week ago) from the main Souceforge site via the Luasanne, Switzerland mirror (I always use that for SF files cos it's better bandwidth than most other European SF sites)
