[U-Boot-Users] file transfer server

Hi all
I am using uboot for the ebony board. I want to be able to transfer a new firmware image to the board over the network. I would like to be able to connect to some sort of a server running on the board (by interrupting the boot sequence) through a client running on a remote system and interactively provide the server with a firmware image which can then be written by the server onto flash.
Can someone tell me how this can be done?
Thanks
Anupam

It works exactly vice versa: you use the TFTP client which is available in U-Boot to connect to a TFTP server somewhere on your network and download the image from the server.
