Remote debug setup

[dneupane]

Hi
I would like to debug ASP.NET page remotely. Here is the scenario

Remote Server: win3k running IIS 6.0 (.NET Framework preinstalled with
OS)

Client: XP Pro SP1 with Admin right (VS.NET 2003 installed)

Do I need to configure any of the above machines to be able to debug
remotely


Any help would be greatly appreciated


Many Thanks
Dneupane

1) You need to make sure the debugger is installed on the deployment
server. Generally, people do this by just installing Visual Studio on
the server.

2) You will need to be part of the visual studio debugging group.

3) When you deploy the application, deploy a debug build.

4) You can then debug the application using Visual Studio on your
development machine by attaching to the aspnet worker process
(aspnet_wp.exe) on the server. You can do this by going to
Debug->Processes menu item in Visual Studio (local version of visual
studio). When you choose Processes, the Processes dialog box appears.
In the Name textbox, type in the machine name and then attach to the
aspnet worker process on the server.

5) After you attach, you should be able to set breakpoints.
