ethernetblaster problem

I am trying to set up my ethernetblaster and having some problems.  

When I tried the autodetect feature, it worked ok. However, I typed no  

password and the connection status was "authentication failure". This  

was expected.  

 

What was not expected is that I cannot change the password. I also  

cannot "remove server" because this button appears shaded!  

 

Next, I set up the ethernetblaster server on another IP address, and  

tried to connect providing the correct password. In the "currently  

selected hardware", and indication of the server appears but when I  

close the "Hardware setup" window, the programmer still keeps saying "No  

hardware" in the top line.  

 

I suspect that if I could remove the "bad" server (actually, now I have  

even 2 of them, with a fake one showing "connecting..." all the time) I  

could try again but this seems impossible.  

 

Any hints?

go to the command line 

 

type jtagconfig 

 

it will list all available config hardware 

 

to delete a config hw setup, type  

 

jtagconfig --delete 1  

 

where 1 is the number from the list provided in the initial jtagconfig command

Thanks. It worked! 

 

Btw, the correct command is  

 

jtagconfig --remove  

 

(at least for my version of jtagconfig)

on a side note, i never add the ethernetblaster using quartus. 

 

do  

 

jtagconfig --addserver my_ethernet_blaster_ip_or_hostname password 

 

--dalon
